Verse 1
The soul in pain
Or: The troubled soul / lost soul
He lives but barely speaks
He waits for her
In front of this photo of yesteryear
Or: In front of this old picture
Chorus 1
He, he isn't crazy
He believes it that's all
Or: He just believes
He sees her everywhere
He waits for her upright
A rose in the hand
Apart from her he awaits nothing
Verse 2
Nothing around
Makes any sense and the air is heavy
Or: (Nothing around) Has meaning and the air is heavy
The gaze absent
Or: His look distant
He's alone, he often talks to her
Chorus 2
He, he isn't crazy
He loves her, that's all
He sees her everywhere
He waits for her upright, upright
A rose in the hand, no
Nothing else holds him back
In his love story
In his love story
In his love story
His love story
Verse 3
Take my hand
Promise me that everything will go well
Hug me tightly
Near you I still dream, yes
Yes I want to stay but
I don't know how to love anymore
I've been too stupid
I beg you stop, stop
Or: Please stop, stop
How I regret, no
I didn't want all this
I would be rich and
I'll offer you all my gold
If you don't care
I'd wait for you at the port
If you ignore me
I'd offer you my last breath of life
In my love story
In my love story
In my love story
My love story
Verse 4
A candle
Can illuminate the night
Or: It can light up the night
One smile
Can build a whole empire
And there's you
And there's me
And nobody believes it but
Love makes from a fool a king
And if you ignore me
I'll fight again and again
Chorus 4
It's your love story
It's your love story
It's the story of a lifetime

SONG MEANING

Indila’s “Love Story” feels like a mini-movie set to music. We open on a lonely dreamer clutching a rose, staring at an old photograph and refusing to believe that his beloved is gone. Everything around him has lost its meaning; the air itself feels heavy. Yet he insists he isn’t crazy—just hopelessly in love. His unwavering faith turns the simplest objects, like that single rose, into powerful symbols of devotion.

The second half flips the lens to the woman he adores. She pleads for comfort, admits her mistakes, and promises riches, breaths, even battles if that is what it takes to revive their bond. In the end, Indila reminds us that one candle can light the night and one smile can build an empire. “Love Story” is a bittersweet pop anthem that celebrates love’s stubborn hope, showing how it can crown a fool a king and inspire someone to fight—again and again—for the happy ending they refuse to surrender.
