You, you J’ai cherché un sens à mon existence J’y ai laissé mon innocence J’ai fini le cœur sans défense J’ai cherché l’amour et la reconnaissance J’ai payé le prix du silence Je me blesse et je recommence Tu m’as comme donné l’envie d’être moi Donné un sens à mes pourquoi Tu as tué la peur qui dormait là Qui dormait là dans mes bras You You’re the one that’s making me strong I’ll be looking, looking for you Like the melody of my song You You’re the one that’s making me strong I’ll be looking, looking for you Like the melody of my song J’ai cherché un sens, un point de repère Partagé en deux hémisphères Comme une erreur de l’univers J’ai jeté tellement de bouteilles à la mer J’ai bu tant de liqueurs amères Que j’en ai les lèvres de pierre Tu m’as comme donné l’envie d’être moi Donné un sens à mes pourquoi Tu as tué la peur qui dormait là Qui dormait là dans mes bras You You’re the one that’s making me strong I’ll be looking, looking for you Like the melody of my song You You’re the one that’s making me strong I’ll be looking, looking for you Like the melody of my song Au gré de nos blessures Et de nos désinvoltures C’est quand on n’y croit plus du tout Qu’on trouve un paradis perdu en nous Oh, you, you, you, you You You’re the one that’s making me strong I’ll be looking, looking for you Like the melody of my song Like the melody of my song Tu m’as comme donné l’envie d’être moi Donné un sens à mes pourquoi (You) Tu as tué la peur qui dormait là Qui dormait là dans mes bras You You’re the one that’s making me strong I’ll be looking, looking, looking for you Like the melody of my song You
