Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Tant De Choses by Zaho from French to English.

There are so many things

That we haven't said

So many things

That we don't know how to say

So many things

That we still have to live

So many things

But I don't know how to say

And to think we missed each other by a little

To be honest, we're doing the best we can

You and I, we're not going to say goodbye

No, our tears would betray our eyes

I tell myself tomorrow I'll confess

I haven't said anything out of fear or politeness

It's only the words we don't say that hurt

And here I am, with the weight of my sadness

Yet I hurt so much, so far, so far from you

Do you hurt so much, so far, so far from me

Yet I hurt so much, so far, so far from you

Do you hurt so much, so far, so far from me

There are so many things

That we haven't said

So many things

That we don't know how to say

So many things

That we still have to live

So many things

But I don't know how to say

So many things

These photos, on the walls that I hang

Memories, of a day when we were close

Helpless against blame, against reproach

Might as well say I missed the boat

But besides that, are you doing well?

Are you coming back?

Don't thank me, it's nothing

We create bonds that we cling to

Running out of words, we undo them, it's ugly

Yet I hurt so much, so far, so far from you

Do you hurt so much, so far, so far from me

Yet I hurt so much, so far, so far from you

Do you hurt so much, so far, so far from me

There are so many things

That we haven't said

So many things

That we don't know how to say

So many things

That we still have to live

So many things

But I don't know how to say

So many things

If only I had said I love you

If only you knew my pain

But there are too many things that I don't know how to say

If I had held onto your steps

If I had told you not to leave

But there are too many things that I don't know how to say

There are so many things

That we haven't said

So many things

That we don't know how to say

So many things

That we still have to live

So many things

But I don't know how to say

So many things

Outro

So many things

We haven't said

SONG MEANING

Tant De Choses is Zaho’s bittersweet confession about all the words that got stuck in her throat. The Algerian-born singer paints the picture of two people who were so close to understanding each other, yet let silence stretch the distance. Every chorus circles back to the same haunting thought: there are countless things we never said, cannot say, or still hope to live together. With a catchy, mid-tempo groove, she juxtaposes lively rhythms with lyrics full of hesitation, regret, and heartache.

As the song unfolds, Zaho rewinds the tape of a relationship—flashing through photos on the wall, memories of shared laughter, then the chill of separation. She admits she held back out of fear or misplaced politeness and wonders if the other person hurts as deeply so far, so far away. The repeated refrain becomes both a lament and a lesson: unsaid words hurt the most. In the end, the track urges listeners to speak their truth before time turns chances into regrets.
