Même si
Grégory Lemarchal Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We can go backwards, and no corners have been turned
I can't control it, if I sink or if I swim
'Cause I chose the water that I'm in
Ne jamais devoir choisir
Avoir raison ou tort
Au-delà de mes faiblesses
Même si l'amour s'enfuit
J'en inventerai les couleurs
S'il est trop tard pour revenir
Je remonterai les heures
There's no way, the changing
'Cause some things will just never be mine
You're not in love this time
But it's alright
Oh-oh, oh-oh
J'aurai voulu t'offrir le meilleur de tout mon être
Au lieu de partir, entre nous, tout faire renaître
Plutôt que de mentir, aborder nos différences
T'aimer autrement qu'à contre sens
And it makes no difference, who is right or wrong
I deserve much more than this
'Cause there's only one thing I want
If it's not what you're made of
You're not what I'm looking for
You were willing but unable
To give me anymore
Et ce dont je suis fait
Tout entier, je saurai te le rendre
Même s'il faut tout apprendre, tout apprendre
What's your definition of the one? Oh-oh
Comment définir l'amour sans toi? Oh-oh
Mais prêt à tous les sacrifices, je refuse celui là
J'aurai voulu t'offrir le meilleur de tout mon être
'Cause these are the waters that I'm in, oh-oh
Même si l'amour s'enfuit
J'en inventerai les couleurs
S'il est trop tard pour revenir
Je remonterai les heures
Et ce dont je suis fait, tout entier
Je saurai te le rendre
Même s'il faut tout apprendre
Même s'il faut tout apprendre
Même s'il faut tout apprendre
The lyrics of Grégory Lemarchal's song Même Si tackle the emotional turmoil of a relationship that has hit a point of no return. The opening lines talk about how the situation has escalated to the point where there is nothing left to do but move forward. There is a sense of acceptance of the circumstances, and the lyrics paint a picture of the singer being caught in the tides of life and feeling like they have no control over the outcome. However, they also state that they chose to be in these waters and now have to deal with the consequences, whatever they may be.
The chorus talks about the resilience of the singer despite everything that has happened. They are still hopeful and ready to face the challenges that life has in store for them. The lyrics say that even if love fades away, the singer will still find a way to make it beautiful and colorful. They will turn back time if that's what it takes to make things right again. The power of love is strong in this song, and the lyrics are a testament to the singer's unwavering faith in it.
In the last verse, the singer reflects on the relationship's failure and expresses their desire to have done things differently. They say they would have wanted to offer their partner the best, to rebuild their relationship from the ground up rather than lying and ignoring their differences. However, the singer acknowledges that this is where they are, and they have to find a way to move on. The final lines reiterate the message of the chorus, that the singer is willing to do whatever it takes to make things right, even if it means learning everything anew.
Overall, Même Si is a song about facing the consequences of one's choices, dealing with the outcome, but still keeping hope and faith alive in love. It talks about the power of resilience and determination in the face of adversity.
Line by Line Meaning
Just like I predicted, we're at the point of no return
I knew it was too late to turn back, and the situation is irreversible
We can go backwards, and no corners have been turned
There is no way to change what has already happened, and we have made no progress
I can't control it, if I sink or if I swim
I have no power over whether I fail or succeed
'Cause I chose the water that I'm in
I chose this situation and must deal with the consequences
There's no way, you're changing
You are not going to change your mind
'Cause some things will just never be mine
There are some things I cannot have or control
You're not in love this time, but it's alright
You do not love me now, but I will be okay
J'aurai voulu t'offrir le meilleur de tout mon être
I wanted to give you the best of myself
Au lieu de partir, entre nous tout faire renaître
Instead of leaving, we could have revived our relationship
Plutôt que de mentir, aborder nos différences
We should have addressed our differences instead of lying
T'aimer autrement qu'à contre sens
I should have loved you differently
And it makes no difference who is right or wrong
Being right or wrong does not matter
I deserve much more than this
I am worth more than what you are giving me
'Cause there's only one thing I want
I only want one thing
If it's not what you're made of
If you cannot provide what I need
You're not what I'm looking for
Then you are not the one for me
You were willing but unable to give me anymore
You tried, but you could not provide what I wanted
Et ce dont je suis fait Tout entier je saurai te le rendre
I will give you all that I am
Même s'il faut tout apprendre, tout apprendre
Even if I have to learn everything
Comment définir l'amour sans toi? Ooh
How can I define love without you?
Mais prêt à tous les sacrifices, je refuse celui là
I am willing to make sacrifices except for this one
Même si l'amour s'enfuit J'en inventerai les couleurs
Even if love fades, I will reinvent it
S'il est trop tard pour revenir Je remonterai les heures
If it is too late to turn back, I will turn back time
Et ce dont je suis fait, tout entier Je saurai te le rendre
I will give you all of me
Même s'il faut tout apprendre Même s'il faut tout apprendre Même s'il faut tout apprendre
Even if I have to learn everything, over and over again

Des chanteurs comme cela, on n'en connaît plus des masses à l'heure actuelle où la bêtise et le faux sont plus reconnus que la talent... Je regrette bien cette époque, les derniers chanteurs compétents sans autotune <3
