C'est ça l'amour
Teeyah Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ohhh Ohhh J′ai rêvé de ton sourire
De ton souffle qui me fait frémir
Je ne pense qu'à ces doux souvenirs, souvenirs... souvenirs... J′ai rêvé de tes yeux posés sur moi du son de ta douce voix
Je me sens si seule loin de toi...
(Paulin chante dans une langue ivoirienne)
J'entends encore ces mélodies
Nos airs sur lesquels j'ai grandi L′espoir de te revoir s′évanoui
Depuis que tu es parti
Je revois ton visage je redessine ton image
J'imagine ma vie sans toi je ne peux vivre si loin de toi
Aimer malgré la distance
C′est ça l'amour c′est ça l'amour (Paulin chante dans une langue ivoirienne)




(Teeyah) J′avais cru pouvoir oublier t'effacer de mes pensées à tout jamais J'avais cru pour voir t′oublier mais je m′étais trompée en moi tu restes gravée
Ohhh, c'est ça l′amour...

Overall Meaning

The above lyrics are from Teeyah's song "C'est ça L'amour" featuring Paulin. The song is a beautiful expression of the pain and longing that comes with being separated from someone you love. Teeyah opens the lyrics with a dreamy tone, expressing her desire for her lover's smile and touch that sends shivers down her spine. She reminisces on the happy moments they shared in the past and how it has become a source of comfort and pain for her. She feels lonely and incomplete without him, and no other person can replace the void he left.


Paulin joins in the song, singing in his native Ivoirian language, reinforcing the message of the song. He talks about how he still hears the melodies they shared, the songs they grew up listening to, and how all of these memories are fading away since the lover's departure. Teeyah then admits that she had initially believed that she could forget her lover and wipe him from her memory. However, she was wrong, and he remains etched in her heart. She concludes that this is what love is all about, the ability to love despite the distance and pain it causes.


In summary, "C'est ça L'amour" is a touching love song that expresses the power of love and the pain that comes with being separated from the one you love, despite the distance.
