Je Ne Sens Plus Ton Amour
Coralie Clément Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Je ne sens plus ton amour
J'ai mal aux yeux
J'ai mal aux yeux de l'amour
Je met ma main au feu

Je ne sens plus ton amour
See'est ennuyeux
Que ça rende aveugle et sourd

Et si malheureux

Tu m'as dit d'une voix glacée
Tu commences à m'agacer

Je ne sens plus ton amour
Mon amoureux
Suis-je ta roue de secours ?
Attendais tu mieux ?

Je ne sens plus ton amour
Si radieux
Et je n'ai aucun recours
Tu fais comme tu veux

Tu m'as dit d'une voix sincère
Ne me laisse pas prendre l'air

Je ne sens plus ton amour
See'est facheux
Que tu joues 10 heures par jour
Dans le salon bleu

Je ne sens plus ton amour
J'ai mal aux yeux
J'ai mal aux yeux de l'amour
Je met ma main au feu

Tu m'as dit d'une voix glacée
Ne me laisse pas me casser

Je ne sens plus ton amour
Je ne sens plus ton amour
Je ne sens plus ton amour
Je ne sens plus ton amour

Je ne sens plus ton amour
Mon amour

Overall Meaning

In Coralie Clément's song, "Je Ne Sens Plus Ton Amour," the singer expresses feelings of frustration and confusion in a romantic relationship. The repeated phrase, "Je ne sens plus ton amour" (I no longer feel your love), emphasizes the singer's exasperation with their partner's lack of affection. The line "J'ai mal aux yeux de l'amour" (I have love in my eyes) is a metaphor for the pain and discomfort caused by unrequited love. The singer even goes as far as to say "Je met ma main au feu" (I would bet my hand), emphasizing their confidence in their lack of love from their partner.

The second verse offers a glimpse of an argument between the singer and their partner, with their partner speaking in a "voix glacée" (cold voice). Throughout the song, the singer questions whether they are simply a "roue de secours" (spare wheel) for their partner. They express their dismay over their partner's obsession with playing in the "salon bleu" (blue room) and their lack of attention towards the relationship. Despite their partner's sincerity in asking them not to leave, the singer still feels unheard and unloved.
