Je t'aime comme ça [English translation]

You are my whole life

I don’t know why

You are not very pretty

But I love you like that

Your joys are childish

Your gestures are clumsy

You look like a kid

But I love you like that

You yell for nothing

You lie confidently

You call me with foolish names

That make my friends laugh

And when I tell you

all this has to change some day

You start crying

And I am there to console you

I take you in my arms

And when snuggled up against me

You are the strongest

But I love you like that

My eyes are full of tears

How to explain it

Everything in you disarms me

But I love you like that

You have flaws

Often you talk too much

And when I'm too much

Infuriated

I shout “that's enough”

But when you smile

With a helpless look

Before your confused look

I feel so moved

You are my whole life

I do not know why

You are not very pretty

But I love you like that
