I hadn't planned
To adopt one day
My child I had to
Especially adapt
It's not just the genes
That make families
Humans who love each other
Are enough
And if the downpour
Touches us you and me
We'll go through it two or three
And if the downpour
Touches us you and me
Take my hand as a stepdad
I wasn't waiting for you
I won't let you go
Even without the same blood
We will love each other
No, I will never take the place
Of the first who told you I love you
On your face we see his face
And that's how you are beautiful
From you to me
It's me I admit
Who invited myself
Into her life there
In the life where
She asked for nothing
And if the downpour
Touches us you and me
We'll go through it two or three
And if the downpour
Touches us you and me
Take my hand as a stepdad
I wasn't waiting for you
I won't let you go
Even without the same blood
We will love each other
We will love each other
I hadn't planned
To adopt one day
In naked truth
It's you who did it
It's not just the genes
That make families
As long as we love each other
And if the downpour
Touches us you and me
We'll go through it two or three
And if the downpour
Touches us you and me
Take my hand
Say
Take it
I wasn't waiting for you
I won't let you go
Even without the same blood
We will love each other
Even without the same blood
We will love each other

SONG MEANING

“Beau-Papa” is Vianney’s heartfelt ode to step-parenthood, celebrating the moment love turns a blended family into a real one. Singing from the point of view of a man who didn’t plan to “adopt” a child but happily adapts, Vianney shows that genetics are only a footnote; what matters is the bond two (or three) people build together. The song paints touching scenes of storms weathered hand in hand, promises never to leave, and the tender respect he has for the biological father whose face he still sees in the child.

With simple words and a warm, acoustic vibe, Vianney turns an everyday family situation into a universal message: love chooses you, and when it does, bloodlines no longer matter. “Beau-Papa” reminds us that families are made by hearts, not just genes, and that the courage to step in and love someone else’s child is as beautiful as any fairy-tale beginning.
