J'Attendrai
Claude François Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Que tu t'imagines que les gens t'en veulent
Que le bonheur soudain t'abandonne
Que pour te consoler tu ne trouves personne
Viens vite
Viens vite, je t'attendrai
Viens vite, je t'attendrai
J'attendrai
Que tu me reviennes à nouveau
Oui, j'attendrai
J'attendrais longtemps s'il le faut
Oui et si un jour tout n'est que confusion
Que ce nouvel amour n'était qu'illusion
Qu'à la dérive tu te laisses aller
Que tu cherches une main pour te rattraper
Viens vite
Viens vite, je t'attendrai
Viens vite, je t'attendrai
J'attendrai
Que tu me reviennes à nouveau
Oui j'attendrai
J'attendrais longtemps s'il le faut
J'attendrai
Que tu me reviennes à nouveau
Oui j'attendrai
J'attendrais longtemps s'il le faut
Oui car si ce jour devait arriver
N'aie pas peur, j'oublierais le passé
Ce jour-là surtout rappelle-toi
Que tu peux toujours compter sur moi
Viens vite
Viens vite, je t'attendrai
Viens vite, je t'attendrai
J'attendrai
Que tu me reviennes à nouveau
Oui j'attendrai
J'attendrais longtemps s'il le faut
Oui j'attendrai
Avec tout l'amour qu'il te faut
Oui j'attendrai
Tu peux toujours compter sur moi
Oui j'attendrai

Now if you feel that you can't go on
If you're feeling like you're at your breaking point
Because all of your hope is gone
You've lost all hope
And your life is filled with much confusion
Your life is in chaos and disarray
Until happiness is just an illusion
You can't even imagine being happy
And your world around is crumblin' down
Everything in your world is falling apart
Darling, reach out, come on girl, reach on out for me
Don't give up, reach out for help
Reach out, reach out for me
I'm here for you, reach out to me
I'll be there, with a love that will shelter you
I will protect you with my love
I'll be there, with a love that will see you through
I will support you and help you get through this
When you feel lost and about to give up
When you feel like you're completely lost and have no hope left
'Cause your best just ain't good enough
You're trying your hardest, but it's not enough
And you feel the world has grown cold
You feel like the world is against you
And you're drifting out all on your own
You feel like you're alone in this
And you need a hand to hold
You need someone to support you
And I'll be there, to love and comfort you
I'm here to show you love and comfort
And I'll be there, to cherish and care for you
I'll be here to appreciate and take care of you
I'll be there, with a love that will see you through
I'll be there to support you and see you through this tough time
I can tell the way you hang your head
I can see you're feeling down from the way you carry yourself
You're without love and now you're afraid
You don't have love in your life and it's causing you fear
And through your tears you look around
You're crying and looking for any hope
But there's no peace of mind to be found
You can't find any peace or resolution
I know what you're thinkin'
I understand what you're feeling and thinking
You're alone now, no love of your own
You're feeling solitary without love in your life
Just look over your shoulder
Look to me for support
I'll be there, to give you all the love you need
I'm here to give you the love and support you need
And I'll be there, you can always depend on me
You can always rely on me for support
