Game Girl Lyrics in English Louane

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Game Girl by Louane from French to English.
Again
You wanna play with me
And I don't get it
What you want from me
You played it well, my heart's up in the air
I played well, I don't like being your opponent
We played, how can I show you
That you're the only one who matters to me
Just let me be your Game Girl
And I will be like no-one ever was
Please bring me back my Game Boy
I swear that I won't play with your heart
Remember
When you played at being the king
When I stayed every time
That you didn't see me
You played it well, my heart's up in the air
I played well, I don't like being your opponent
We played, how can I show you
That you're the only one who matters to me
Just let me be your Game Girl
And I will be like no-one ever was
Please bring me back my Game Boy
I swear that I won't play with your heart
Game Girl, Game Girl
Game Boy, Game Boy
Game Girl, Game Girl
Game Boy, Game Boy
You played it well, my heart's up in the air
I played well, I don't like being your opponent
We played, how can I show you
That you're the only one who matters to me
Just let me be your Game Girl
And I will be like no-one ever was
Please bring me back my Game Boy
I swear that I won't play with your heart

SONG MEANING

Press Start! In Game Girl, French pop sensation Louane turns romance into an old-school video game. From the very first line, she calls out a partner who keeps hitting the “play” button on her heart yet never explains the rules. He’s well played her feelings, leaving her “heart in the air,” and she’s tired of being cast as the opponent instead of Player 2. By chanting “Just let me be your Game Girl,” Louane offers a simple cheat code: turn off the mind games and team up for love instead of battling against each other.

The nostalgic shout-out to the Game Boy is more than retro flair – it symbolizes the trust and innocence she wants back. Louane promises, “I swear I won’t play with your heart,” asking him to hand over the controller so they can aim for the ultimate high score together: a relationship where only they matter. The song is catchy, playful, and packed with gaming metaphors, but beneath the pixelated surface lies a sincere message about vulnerability, trust, and choosing cooperation over competition in love.
