Why Do U Say You Love Me?
Arly Lariviere Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mwen ta renmen konnen si ou pa fatigé répété vyé kozé ou konnen k′pap fèm byen
Té kwè nou té palé, té di ke ou padoné-m
Pouki ou kité rankin vin anvayi tout kèy
Sé kèm kapé raché chak fwa mwen wè-w gadé-m
Nan jé-w m'ka déviné tout sa ki nan pansé-w
Lè téléfon sonné toujou bézwen konnen a ki moun map palé ki niméwo k′rélé-m
Ki jan ou vé pou-n viv eweu si ou pa désidé bliyé le pasé
Konbyien moun ki tap dlo nan jé si lanmou pat konn pawdoné

Lotréjou n'té soti nou tal pran on ti plézi
Yon zanmi di-m bonjou ou té prèt pou té fou
San yon ti réflèksyon tonbé pozé-m késyon
Ki dènyé fwa ou vin la konbyen moun ou mennen la
O bondyeu jis kilè ma va sispann kriyé, ma va sispann plenyen pou yon éreu m'té fè
Ki jan ou vé pou-n viv eweu si ou pa désidé bliyé le pasé
Konbyen moun ki tap dlo nan jé si lanmou pat konn pawdoné





If you really love someone make it feel it′s the one
If you really love somebody always forgive (bis)

Té kwè nou té palé, té di ke ou padoné-m
You said we talked and you forgave me


Pouki ou kité rankin vin anvayi tout kèy
Why did you leave Rankin to invade my whole heart?


Sé kèm kapé raché chak fwa mwen wè-w gadé-m
It's my heart that breaks every time I see you looking at me


Nan jé-w m'ka déviné tout sa ki nan pansé-w
In your eyes, I can guess everything that's on your mind

The other day we went out to have a little fun


Yon zanmi di-m bonjou ou té prèt pou té fou
A friend said hello and you were ready to go crazy


San yon ti réflèksyon tonbé pozé-m késyon
Without a second thought, you started asking me questions


Ki dènyé fwa ou vin la konbyen moun ou mennen la
The last time you came here, how many people did you bring?


O bondyeu jis kilè ma va sispann kriyé, ma va sispann plenyen pou yon éreu m'té fè
Oh my God, until when will I stop crying and complaining about a mistake I made?


If you really love someone make it feel it′s the one
If you truly love someone, make that person feel like they're the only one


If you really love somebody always forgive (bis)
If you truly love somebody, always forgive them
