Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

J'aurais voulu être celle qui portait la couronne de ton royaume
J'aurais voulu être celle pour qui t'a inventé des mots
J'aurais voulu être celle à qui le coeur plein d'eau tu je t'aime trop

Explose moi en rosé sur le pavé
Laisse toi fleurir ou flétrir mais laisse toi
Jte veux tu m'a niaise pas oh
Mon coeur est plus grand que moi ah ah

J'aurais voulu être celle que tu veux toujours pour désert
J'aurais voulu être celle qui te manque même quand je suis là
J'aurais voulu être celle que ta mère préfère

Explose moi en rosé sur le pavé
Laisse toi fleurir ou flétrir mais laisse toi
Jte veux tu m'a niaise pas oh
Mon coeur est plus grand que moi ah ah

J'aurais voulu être celle que tu te shoot dans les veines
J'aurais voulu être celle qui peut prendre ta main sans permission
celle avec qui dans la pluie tu est heureux

J'aurais voulu être celle qui te fait trambler même quand il fait chaud
J'aurais voulu être celle qui porte des chemises les matins gris
j'aurais voulu être celle qui te fait vivre l'été dans ton lit





Explose moi mon coeur est plus grand que moi (la la la ...) x2
