I've lied before
To the people I love
So I wouldn't say
When things aren't right
I've smiled before
To escape the pain
I drag behind me
And then
It's not easy to say
When you're scared
When you don't
Believe in yourself
After all, what do I have to offer
I don't know
But I admit
Since you're here
I'm not scared anymore
To watch the day rise
Yet I wasn't waiting for you
You, my love
And if life splits us up
Then it's not worth it anymore
I admit
I don't wanna say thanks
Because you deserve
So much more than that
Because you saved my life
I've only got one wish now
It's to live it with you
And no matter the torrents
The rains
All the trials
Of the world, together
We'll cross them
And we'll make ourselves memories
That the others
Won't understand
Won't understand
But I admit
Since you're here
I'm not scared anymore
To watch the day rise
Yet I wasn't waiting for you
You, my love
And if life splits us up
Then it's not worth it anymore
I admit
You're my present
And my future too
This love so strong
That I walk through walls
You're my greatest luck
My roof, my armor
You're my last dance
This spotless canvas
You're my essential
Surely the most beautiful soul
You're my light
That shines, that guides me
And if one day you leave
If one day I lose you
Never forget
How much I love you
So I admit
Since you're here
I'm not scared anymore
To watch the day rise
Yet I wasn't waiting for you
You, my love
And if life splits us up
Then it's not worth it anymore
I admit
But I admit
Since you're here
I'm not scared anymore
To watch the day rise
Yet I wasn't waiting for you
You, my love
And if life splits us up
Then it's not worth it anymore
I admit

Confession, relief, and a life-changing love. In “Linh,” French artist J’avoue opens his heart about the little lies we tell to hide our blues. He admits grinning through pain, doubting himself, and feeling unworthy of offering anything real. The lyrics start in the shadows of self-doubt, painting a picture of someone who masks sadness just to keep loved ones from worrying.

Everything flips the moment Linh enters. Suddenly, daylight is no longer scary, and the future looks like an adventure worth living. J’avoue thanks his partner not with a simple “merci,” but with a promise: no storm, torrent, or trial can break their bond. He calls her his present and future, roof and armor, light and last dance — a poetic list that shows how completely she fills his world. At its core, the song is a glowing tribute to a love so powerful it rescues, empowers, and gives meaning to every new sunrise.
