Je Ne Sais Pas - Joyce Jonathan - Translation

I Don't Know
Joyce Jonathan
There are words that bother me, hundreds of words, thousands of cheesy tunes
that are never the same
How do I tell you I don't wanna lie I'm drawn to you and that I think is the root of the problem
Your pride your whims your sweet kisses your taste for torture I don't really know where it's leading
[Refrain]
So, let's be real it's not the end of the world
And then the wrong questions are asked again
[Chorus]
I don't know how to tell you, I've scared of fucking things up, of destroying everything
I've always had the idea to clear things up
But I always let my emotions lead
All too often I tell myself I've had enough of being passive but one look from you and I'm all over you
And it's often too hard to discern love from my friend my lover my love again and again
So, let's be real it's the end of the world
And then the wrong questions are asked again
I don't know how to tell you, I've scared of fucking things up, of destroying everything
I've always had the idea to clear things up
But I always let my emotions lead
[Bridge]
I want you with your faults and your lying issues
I want you I don't want a fake, no forgeries
I don't want to give you up for another
I don't want to give you away because of a few mistakes
I want your words I want your skin it's never enough
I still want to change your life who wants someone a little prettier
I don't want to I don't want to ever want
And then you're someone I don't know whose dreams aren't me
You know how confused I am so let's leave it at that
I don't know how to tell you, I've scared of fucking things up, of destroying everything
I've always had the idea to clear things up
But I always let my emotions lead
