Verse 1
We were explosive
But apparently not so exclusive
Lying was your expertise
And you don't forget your exes
Prechorus 1
Cause I know that you're watching
At my posts all the time
Want some popcorn with that?
Cause you won't see more of me
Chorus 1
Now that you're gone, gone
It doesn't bother me that much anymore
Now that you're gone, gone
You were just a stupid idea
And now I'm screaming: 'Bye-bye, it's over
Between you and me, me, forever'
I wish myself the best
Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone
Verse 2
You say you can do better
Well, that's quite a shame then
There won't be a second chance
So show it to someone else then
Prechorus 2
And I know that you're watching
At my posts, all the time
Want some popcorn with that?
Cause you won't see more of me
Chorus 2
Now that you're gone, gone
It doesn't bother me that much anymore
Now that you're gone, gone
You were just a stupid idea
And now I'm screaming: 'Bye-bye, it's over
Between you and me, me, forever'
I wish myself the best
Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone
Bridge
And a part of me secretly hopes
That you'll someday be at my door again
So that I can once again
Slam it shut in your face
Outro
So now I'm saying: 'Bye-bye, it's over
Between you and me, me, forever'
I wish myself the best
Now that you're gone
Did you like this lyrics translation?

dichtslaanto slam shut

Dichtslaan means 'to slam shut' or 'to close forcefully'. It's a vivid and active verb that conveys strong emotion, far beyond simply 'closing' something.

In the song, the artist sings, "Zodat ik 'm dan volgens weer in jouw gezicht kan dichtslaan" (So that I can then slam it shut in your face again). This powerful imagery perfectly captures the feeling of anger and finality after a breakup, making it a memorable and impactful word.

Have you ever felt so done with a relationship that you just want to scream "Bye-bye"? That's the powerful feeling behind Camille's breakup anthem, "Nu Dat Je Weg Bent," which translates to "Now That You're Gone."

The song tells the story of someone moving on from a toxic ex who was a master of lying and wasn't exclusive. Instead of feeling sad, the singer is feeling empowered and free. She knows her ex is still watching her social media posts, and she cheekily asks if they want some popcorn for the show. It's a sassy and confident declaration that the relationship was a "stupid idea" and she's now wishing herself all the best. It's the perfect song for anyone ready to slam the door on the past and celebrate their own happiness.
