Même Si Lyrics in English Lucie Silvas , Grégory Lemarchal

Home / Lyrics Translation / Lucie Silvas / Même Si

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Même Si by Lucie Silvas from French to English.

Just like I predicted

We're at the point of no return

We can go backwards

And no corners have been turned

I can't control it

If I sink or if I swim

Cause I chose the waters that I'm in

Never having to choose

Being right or wrong

Beyond my weaknesses

I still have the strength to believe

Even if love runs away

I'll make up its colors

If it's too late to come back

I'll turn back the hours

There's no way

You're changing

'Cause some things will just never be mine

You're in not love this time

But it's alright

I would've wanted to give you the best of all I am

Instead of leaving, make everything between us start again

Rather than lying

Face our differences

Love you without going the wrong way

And it makes no difference

Who is right or wrong

I deserve much more than this

'Cause there's only one thing I want

If it's not what you're made of

You're not what I'm looking for

You were willing but unable to give me anymore

And what I'm made of

Whole, I'll know how to give it back to you

Even if we have to learn it all, learn it all

What's your definition of the one?

How do I define love without you

But willing to make every sacrifice, I refuse that one

I would've wanted to give you the best of all I am

'Cause these are the waters that I'm in

Even if love runs away

I'll make up its colors

If it's too late to come back

I'll turn back the hours

And what I'm made of, completely

I'll know how to give it back to you

Even if we have to learn it all

SONG MEANING

**“Même Si” brings together British singer–songwriter Lucie Silvas and French sensation Grégory Lemarchal for a bilingual heart-to-heart that captures the exact moment when a couple realises their love is slipping away. The lyrics move back and forth between English and French, mirroring the lovers’ push-and-pull: they stand at the point of no return, admitting that no matter how hard they try to swim upstream, the tide has already changed. Yet in the middle of this heartbreak, both voices refuse to drown. They promise to repaint love in new colours, rewind the hours if they must, and stay true to what they are “made of.”

Instead of blaming each other, the song shines a light on self-worth and courage. “If it’s not what you’re made of, you’re not what I’m looking for” becomes an empowering mantra: it is better to walk away than to accept a love that cannot meet you halfway. The result is a soaring duet where vulnerability meets strength, reminding us that even when love escapes, we can reinvent it, learn from it, and emerge stronger than before.
