Heavily influenced by American rock & roll, Mitchell (who went solo in 1963) has often recorded outside France, at first in London, but later in Memphis and Nashville, Tennessee. Guitarist Jimmy Page and drummer Bob Graham were among the British session musicians who regularly supported him in London.
Si Toi Aussi Tu M'Abandonnes
Eddy Mitchell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nul ne pourra plus jamais rien, non, rien pour moi !
Si tu me quittes, plus personne ne comprendra mon désarroi
Et je garderai ma souffrance, dans un silence
Sans espérance puisque ton cœur ne sera plus là !
C'est la cruelle incertitude qui vient hanter ma solitude !
Que deviendrai-je dans la vie si tu me fuis ?
Si tu t'en vas, j'aurai trop peur, peur de ne plus vivre une heure !
(Guitare solo)
Si tu me quittes, plus personne ne comprendra mon désarroi
Et je garderai ma souffrance, dans un silence
Sans espérance puisque ton cœur ne sera plus là !
Si toi aussi tu m'abandonnes, il ne me restera plus rien
Plus rien au monde et plus personne, qui me comprenne
Qui me soutienne ou qui me donne simplement la main !
Attends ! Attends ! Attends ! Demain.
Attends ! Attends ! Attends ! Demain.
Attends ! Attends ! Attends ! Demain. Attends ! Attends ! Demain.
Attends ! Attends !
The lyrics to Eddy Mitchell's "Si Toi Aussi Tu M'Abandonnes" are about the fear of abandonment and the love that is lost when a partner leaves. The singer expresses that if his love were to leave him, he would be left in a state of despair and without hope. He speaks of the uncertainty and anxiety that comes with the possibility of being abandoned, and the pain that would come with it.
The song's first verse paints a picture of a desolate future without the singer's love. He says "Nul ne pourra plus jamais rien, non, rien pour moi!" which translates to "No one will ever be able to do anything for me anymore, not anything at all!" The second verse speaks of the despair that comes with the thought of losing his love, saying that he would have too much fear to go on living. The guitar solo in between these verses serves to heighten the emotion and intensity of the song.
The chorus repeats the theme of the fear and pain that comes with abandonment. The singer would be left alone with his suffering, with no hope for the future. The last lines of the chorus express a kind of existential loneliness, with the singer feeling as though he would have nothing and no one left to understand him.
Overall, "Si Toi Aussi Tu M'Abandonnes" is a poignant and emotional song about the pain of losing love.
