Erreurs
Je sais que je les porterai toute ma vie
Mes erreurs
Comme de celle
Tu sais laquelle
Quand on a coupé mes cordes
Je me suis envolée ailleurs
On a coupé mes cordes
Et je ne redescendais pas
Mistakes I've made
I know I'll live with them all my life
Mistakes I've made
Like the one
You know the one
And I had my strings cut
I went flying around
And I had my strings cut
I wasn't coming down
These days I'm only happy when I cannot move
These days I'm only happy when I'm tied down
Next to you
Not with my strings cut
When I'm flying around
Not with my strings cut
When I'm not coming down
Mistakes I've made
I know I'll live with them all my life
Mistakes I've made
Like the one
You know the one
And I had my strings cut
I went flying around
And I had my strings cut
I wasn't coming down
