Habibi
Hatik Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Est-ce que tu t'rappelles
De tes belles paroles?
Tu m'as laissé par terre
Dans mon cœur, y a un cratère
Tu m'as dit, "Aime-moi"
Et j't'ai aimé comme never
Mais ton sourire fait mal
Là c'est mon p'tit cœur qui crève

Habibi, habibi, habibi
Habibi, habibi, habibi
Habibi, habibi, habibi
Habibi, habibi, habibi

Et si t'étais pas là quand j'avais froid
Tu seras pas là quand j'aurais chaud
Quand tu t'approches de moi, ça me rend malade
Allez, vas-y, lance ma main
T'as pas volé droit, j't'ai oublié
Grace à Dieu, j't'ai pas mis la bague
Et j'vais remettre mon bouclier
Tu parles, tu parles beaucoup
J'veux pas des paroles, j'veux des actes
Tu parles, tu parles seule-tout
Tu sais bien qu't'as perdu le pactole, ouais

Habibi, habibi, habibi
Habibi, habibi, habibi
Habibi, habibi, habibi
Habibi, habibi, habibi

Tout est ca-ca-cassé
Affaire cla-cla-classée
T'es pas ca-ca-carrée
Donc j'vais ba-ba-barré
Tout est ca-ca-cassé
Affaire cla-cla-classée
T'es pas ca-ca-carrée
Donc j'vais ba-ba-barré

Habibi, habibi, habibi
Habibi, habibi, habibi
Habibi, habibi, habibi
Habibi, habibi, habibi

Habibi, habibi, habibi
Habibi, habibi, habibi
Habibi, habibi, habibi
Habibi, habibi, habibi

(Oh, oh, habibi)
(Oh, oh, habibi)
(Oh, oh, habibi)
(Oh, oh)

Habibi, habibi, habibi
Habibi, habibi, habibi
