A Ma Place Lyrics in English Zazie , Axel Bauer

Home / Lyrics Translation / Zazie / A Ma Place

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song A Ma Place by Zazie from French to English.

Would she be in my place

Stronger than a man

At the end of these dead ends

Where she abandons me

Living hell

Dying in battle

Must I go that far

To please her

Could I achieve it

Could we be forgiven

Could we be loved

For who we are

Does she put herself in my shoes

Sometimes

When my wings crumple

And my islands drown

I bend under the weight

Bend under the weight

Of this half of a woman

That he wants me to be

I'm happy to play the beauty

But not to sleep in the woods

I'm happy to be a queen

But not the shadow of the king

Must I give in

Must I bleed

For him to love me too

For who I am

Could he make an effort

Would she do it for me

To open the door a little

Even just a step

Could he make another

Another effort

A gesture, a step towards me

A step towards me

I don't expect you to be the same

I don't expect you to understand me

But only to love me

For who I am

Does she put herself in my shoes sometimes

What must I do for her to see me

Living hell

Dying in battle

Do you want to make me into something I'm not

I'm willing to make the effort, to look you in the eye

But the silence is dead and yours freezes me

My soulmate seeks the mistake

The more my blood drains, the more you fear

Must I teach you

I'm not asking anything of you

The murky waters where I linger

Where you go, where you come from

Do you really need to know

All that you hide

Deep inside me

Deep inside you

I don't expect you to be the same

I don't expect you to understand me

But only to love me

Only to love me

For who I am

When I doubt, when I fall

And when the road is too long

When sometimes I'm not

What you expect from me

What do you want us to do

What would you have done in my place
