Original lyrics
Si on n'aime qu'une fois / Η Λέξη Σ’ Αγαπώ (I Lexi S’ Agapo)
Je n’arrive plus à me réinventer
Depuis que t’as planté
Des graines d’absence en moi
Chaque rayon de lune semble m’éventrer
J’espère que tu vas rentrer
pourquoi je n’dors pas?
Tout me fatigue
Tout seul je navigue
Rescapé sur ton île
J’attends que la tempête emporte l’exil
Si renaître nous était permis
Je t’aimerais dans chaque vie
Si on n’aime qu’une fois
J’ai déjà dépensé tous mes battements de cœur, mes pensées
On parlait d’une seule voix
Mes cris d’amour sont muets, et mon horizon est muré
J’pense à toi 24 heures par jour sept jours par semaine
J’ai des morceaux de toi parsemés par centaines
Et j’brûle d’amour pour toi
Je fondrai cent dix fois j’te dis au sein de ton incendie
Κοίταξε τα μάτια μου πως κλαίνε
Από την ώρα που ‘φυγες να ζήσω προσπαθώ
Βλέπω κάθε μέρα εφιάλτες
Που λες εσύ πως τίποτα δεν ήταν αρκετό
Τα τόσα λόγια του έρωτά μας
Ποια σβήστρα τα ‘σβησε και δεν υπάρχουν
Τώρα στην καρδιά μας
Χωρίς εσένα δε θέλω να ζω
Μόνος ξανά δε μπορώ
Να ξέρεις σ’ αγαπώ
Πιο πάνω απ’ τη ζωή μου και να βάλεις στο μυαλό σου
Μονάχος δε μπορώ
Σε έχω συνηθίσει και αυτό πια δεν αλλάζει
Αν είχα δυο ζωές μαζί σου θέλω να ‘μουν
Αν είχα τρεις πάλι δε θα ‘ταν αρκετό
Η λέξη σ’ αγαπώ ίσως και να ‘ναι λίγη
Μπροστά σ’ αυτά που νιώθω
Si on n’aime qu’une fois
J’ai déjà dépensé tous mes battements de cœur, mes pensées
Να ξέρεις σ’ αγαπώ
Σε έχω συνηθίσει και αυτό πια δεν αλλάζει
J’pense à toi 24 heures par jour sept jours par semaine
J’ai des morceaux de toi parsemés par centaines
Η λέξη σ’ αγαπώ ίσως και να ‘ναι λίγη
Μπροστά σ’ αυτά που νιώθω
Translation
If we only loved once/The word I love you
I'm no longer able to reinvent myself
Ever since you planted
Seeds of absence inside me
Each ray of moonlight feels like it's going to rip me open
I'm hoping that you'll come back
Why can't I sleep?
Everything makes me tired
I'm going on all alone
A survivor on your island
I'm waiting for a storm to get rid of my exile
If we were allowed to be reborn
I would love you in every life
If we only loved once
I already used up all of my heartbeats, my thoughts
We would speak with one voice
My cries of love are muted, my horizon is walled up
I'm thinking of you 24 hours a day, seven days a week
I have hundreds of pieces of you scattered around me
And I'm burning with love for you
I'm telling you, I'd melt ten times in the middle of your fire
Look at my eyes and how I'm crying
Ever since you left, I've been trying to live
I see nightmares every day
Nightmares where you say that nothing is enough
There were so many words to describe our love
Then an eraser wiped them out, and they're no longer there
In our hearts
Without you, I don't want to live
I'm alone again, and I can't do it
Know that I love you
More than my own life, keep it in your head
I can't do it if I'm alone
I've gotten used to you, and that'll never change
If I had two lives, I'd want to be with you for both of them
Even if I had three, it still wouldn't be enough
The word "I love you" may be small
Compared to what I feel
If we only loved once
I already used up all of my heartbeats, my thoughts
Know that I love you
I've gotten used to you, and that'll never change
I'm thinking of you 24 hours a day, seven days a week
I have hundreds of pieces of you scattered around me
The word "I love you" may be small
Compared to what I feel
