Respire Encore Lyrics in English Clara Luciani

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Respire Encore by Clara Luciani from French to English.
She breathes in the smell of bodies
Dancing around her in the dark
They brush against each other without shyness
A choreographed insolence
She doesn't wanna sit, she wants to lose herself
She wants somebody to hit on her
To watch her and spin her around
She doesn't wanna sit, it's gone on too long
Forced immobility, tonight life will start again
It has to move, it has to shake
It has to sweat again
In the chaos of the bars at night
Disheveled in the dark
We'll have to learn to drink again
We'll have to breathe again
It has to move, it has to shake
It has to sweat again
In the chaos of the bars at night
Disheveled in the dark
We'll have to learn to drink again
We'll have to breathe again
The back of her neck often skims the dancefloor
You think she falters but she gets through
The beat of her heart
Lines up with the strobes and beats a little harder
She doesn't wanna sit, she wants to lose herself
She wants somebody to hit on her
To watch her and spin her around
She doesn't wanna sit, it's gone on too long
Forced immobility, tonight she's starting again
It has to move, it has to shake
It has to sweat again
In the chaos of the bars at night
Disheveled in the dark
We'll have to learn to drink again
We'll have to breathe again
It has to move, it has to shake
Gotta sweat again
In the chaos of the bars at night
Disheveled in the dark
We'll have to learn to drink again
We'll have to breathe again
Come on breathe again
Come on breathe again, go, go, go, go
Come on breathe again, go, go, go
Come on breathe again, go, go, go, go
Come on breathe again, go, go, go, go, go, go
It has to move, it has to shake
It has to sweat again
In the chaos of the bars at night
Disheveled in the dark
We'll have to learn to drink again
We'll have to breathe again
It has to move, it has to shake
Gotta sweat again
In the chaos of the bars at night
Disheveled in the dark
We'll have to learn to drink again
We'll have to breathe again
Outro
Come on breathe again
Come on breathe again
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

SONG MEANING

🎉 Respire Encore bursts in like the first gulp of fresh air after you finally fling open a window you never thought would unlock. Clara Luciani invites us onto a sweat-soaked dance floor where bodies glide through darkness, brushing past each other with cheeky confidence, and every strobe-lit heartbeat shouts, Move! The singer’s heroine refuses to sit—she wants to forget herself, be spun around, and feel the bass drown out months of forced stillness.

Beyond its infectious groove, the track is a joyful rebellion against confinement. It urges us to rediscover crowded bars, clinking glasses, and the glorious mess of nighttime freedom. “Respire encore” (“breathe again”) becomes a rallying cry: dance until it trembles, sweat until dawn, and prove to the world that life—messy, noisy, deliciously human—has started up once more.
