Et Pourtant
Serge Lama Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Un beau matin, je sais que je m'йveillerai,
Diffйremment de tous les autres jours,
Et mon coeur dйlivrй enfin de notre amour
Et pourtant... Et pourtant...

Sans un remords, sans un regret, je partirai
Loin devant moi, sans espoir de retour
Loin des yeux, loin du coeur,
J'oublierai pour toujours
Et ton corps, et tes bras, et ta voix,
Mon amour

Et pourtant...
Pourtant, je n'aime que toi
Et pourtant...
Pourtant, je n'aime que toi
Et pourtant...
Pourtant, je n'aime que toi
Et pourtant...

J'arracherai, sans une larme, sans un cri
Les liens secrets qui dйchirent ma peau
Me libйrant de toi pour trouver le repos
Et pourtant... Et pourtant...

Je marcherais vers d'autres cieux, d'autres pays
En oubliant ta cruelle froideur
Les mains pleines d'amour,
J'offrirai au bonheur
Et les jours, et les nuits, et la vie
De mon coeur

Et pourtant...
Pourtant, je n'aime que toi
Et pourtant...
Pourtant, je n'aime que toi
Et pourtant...
Pourtant, je n'aime que toi
Et pourtant...

Il faudra bien que je retrouve ma raison
Mon insouciance, et mes йlans de joie
Que je parte а jamais pour йchapper а toi
Et pourtant... Et pourtant...

Dans d'autres bras, quand j'oublierai jusqu'а ton nom
Quand je pourrai repenser l'avenir
Tu ne deviendras pour moi
Qu'un lointain souvenir
Quand mon mal, et ma peur et mes pleurs
Vont finir

Et pourtant...
Pourtant, je n'aime que toi
Et pourtant...
Pourtant, je n'aime que toi
Pourtant, pourtant, je n'aime que toi
Pourtant, pourtant, je n'aime que toi
Et pourtant...




Pourtant, je n'aime que toi
Et pourtant...

Overall Meaning

The song "Et Pourtant" by Serge Lama tells the story of a person who is trapped in a loveless and unhappy relationship, but struggles to let go. The opening lyrics suggest that one day, they will awaken differently than any other day, and their heart will finally be freed from the weight of their love. Despite this desire to move on, the singer remains conflicted, acknowledging that they will leave without remorse or regret, but unable to ignore the love that they still hold for their partner.


The second verse reveals the hopelessness of the situation, with the singer admitting that they will walk away from their lover with no intention of returning. Although they will forget about the person they once loved and will offer their love to someone else, they will always remain devoted to their current partner. The third verse speaks of the physical and emotional pain that the singer will endure to sever the ties with their lover, but they will eventually heal and move on.


The song's central message is about the challenges of letting go of someone we have loved deeply, even when the relationship has run its course. Despite the hurt, the memories, and the regrets, the singer must leave behind their love to find happiness and peace.


Line by Line Meaning

Un beau matin, je sais que je m'йveillerai,
One fine day, I know I'll wake up,


Different from all the other days,
Different from all the other days,


And my heart finally freed from our love
And my heart finally freed from our love,


And yet... And yet...
And yet... And yet...


Without a remorse, without a regret, I will leave
Without regret, I will leave


Ahead of me, with no hope of returning
Ahead of me, with no hope of returning


Far from your eyes, far from the heart,
Far from your eyes, far from the heart,


I will forget forever
I will forget forever,


And your body, and your arms, and your voice,
And your body, and your arms, and your voice,


My love
My love


And yet...
And yet...


Yet, I love only you
Yet, I love only you


And yet...
And yet...


Yet, I love only you
Yet, I love only you


And yet...
And yet...


Yet, I love only you
Yet, I love only you


And yet...
And yet...


I will tear apart, without a tear, without a cry
I will tear apart, without a tear, without a cry


The secret ties that tear my skin
The secret ties that tear my skin


Liberating me from you to find rest
Liberating me from you to find rest


And yet... And yet...
And yet... And yet...


I will walk towards other skies, other lands
I will walk towards other skies, other lands


Forgetting your cruel coldness
Forgetting your cruel coldness


My hands full of love,
My hands full of love,


I will offer the happiness,
I will offer the happiness,


And the days, and the nights, and the life
And the days, and the nights, and the life


Of my heart
Of my heart


And yet...
And yet...


Yet, I love only you
Yet, I love only you


And yet...
And yet...


Yet, I love only you
Yet, I love only you


And yet...

Yet, I love only you
Yet, I love only you


And yet...
And yet...


I will have to find my reason
I will have to find my reason


My carefreeness and my bursts of joy
My carefreeness and my bursts of joy


That I must leave forever to escape you
That I must leave forever to escape you


And yet... And yet...
And yet... And yet...


In other arms, when I will forget even your name
In other arms, when I will forget even your name


When I can think again of the future,
When I can think again of the future,


You will become for me
You will become for me


A distant memory
A distant memory


When my pain, and my fear and my tears
When my pain, and my fear and my tears


Are ending
Are ending


And yet...
And yet...


Yet, I love only you
Yet, I love only you


And yet...
And yet...
