Daisybox Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tous les jours je me réveille
Tous les jours, le soleil
Tous les jours qui me surveillent
Et je t'oublie
Tous les jours dans mon lit
Tous les jours quand je m'ennuie
Et je t'oublie
Et lentement
Lentement
Mais tout le temps
Je t'oublie
Si doucement
Doucement
Tu me reprends
Je t'oublie
Tous les jours je me réveille
C'est le jour, c'est la veille
Tous les jours qui me surveillent
Et je t'oublie
Et lentement
Lentement
Mais tout le temps
Je t'oublie
Si doucement
Doucement
Tu me reprends
Je t'oublie
C'est comme avant
Comme avant
C'est pour longtemps
Je t'oublie
The song "Tous les jours" by Daisybox is a melancholic exploration of the cyclical nature of the singer's daily routine and the persistent feeling of forgetting a past lover. The lyrics evoke a sense of repetition and ennui, as the singer wakes up every day under the watchful eye of the sun, goes to bed at night waiting for the forgetfulness to set in, and yet somehow always ends up remembering the person they are trying to forget. The chorus in particular drives home this point, with the repeated phrases "Et je t'oublie" ("And I forget you"), followed by the contradictory "Mais tout le temps" ("But all the time"), emphasizing the paradoxical nature of trying to erase someone from one's memory while simultaneously being unable to do so.
The use of the word "lentement" ("slowly") in the chorus further reinforces this sense of a gradual, ongoing struggle with forgetting. The singer is not simply able to flick a switch and erase their memories instantly; instead, the process is fraught with difficulty and takes place slowly, almost imperceptibly. The lyrics also touch on the idea that this struggle is likely to continue for a long time to come, with the phrase "C'est pour longtemps" ("It's for a long time") indicating a sense of resignation and acceptance that this is something they will have to deal with indefinitely.
Overall, "Tous les jours" is a poignant and reflective meditation on the difficulties of letting go of the past, even when you are desperately trying to move on. It captures the way memories can linger in our minds, and how the repetition of daily life can often become a painful reminder of what we have lost.
