Je pensais pas [English translation]

I used to toss out a "bye-bye" when I left

Like tossing a sack into a baggage compartment

A bit of courage

And the morning after I was already far away

So far

I used to see myself as waterproof

I let them cry, so I would feel loved

And I picked up my bag, my station air

A taxi in the street

And I never came back

I didn't think that one day

I would love you so much

That imagining leaving

would be like imagining dying

I didn't think that one day

I would love you so much

That I'd rather die

than leave again

I tossed my lovers aside like paperback books

May we forget with no regret, on a bus seat

And without looking back I went far away

I saw myself as a train, a vapor in the night

But one day I didn't know what was happening

I wanted to leave but I stayed

As much as I haunted the end of the line concourse,

I couldn't take the bus anymore

I didn't think that one day

I would love you so much

That imagining leaving

would be like imagining dying

I didn't think that one day

I would love you so much

That I'd rather die

than leave again

I didn't think that one day

I would love you so much

That imagining leaving

would be like imagining dying

I didn't think that one day

I would love you so much

That I'd rather die

than leave again
