Lui ou Toi Translation | Alizée

Him or You
Alizée - Gourmandises 2003

Where is he?
When he leaves
My whole life
Means nothing

Where is "he"
His manly voice I love?
Without "him" he is nothing

He is wiser*
I'm wearing his blue hoodie
His irises, the water around it
They're blue, like Chinese seas

He is mysterious
In his stratosphere**
Between the two
I wanted both

Not having made a choice
Is like lead in my heart
Like a thorn in my throat
"Him" or you

The wooden shutters
Let the deadly showers
Pour on me
"Him" or you

Where is he?
When neither of them are here
The whole city holds no charm

You or "him"
My two male halves
Without them
I am nothing

"He" is stronger
He's funny when annoyed
And when he's wrong
I love "him" more than him
"He" says:

He's in love
As water forms waves
Without them
My soul is incomplete

In my heart, weighing like lead
Are tears of Chinese ink
Pointing the choices
"Him" or you
To find deep within me
The childish rhymes
But the wooden horses
Are cold
