J'ai cherché

I have been looking for

You-ou-ou-ou-ou
You-ou-ou-ou-ou
 
I was looking for a sense in my existence
I have lost my innocence in doing so
I finished my heart without defense
I was looking for
 
Love and recognition
I paid the price of silence
I hurt myself and start again
 
You gave
Me like the need to be myself
Gave a sense to my why's
You killed the fear
Sleeping there, sleeping there
In my arms
 
You-ou-ou-ou-ou
You’re the one that’s making me strong
I’ll be looking, looking for
You-ou-ou-ou-ou
Like the melody of my song
 
You-ou-ou-ou-ou
You’re the one that’s making me strong
I’ll be looking, looking for
You-ou-ou-ou-ou
Like the melody of my song
 
I was looking for a sense
A point of reference
Divided into two hemispheres
Like an error of the universe
I threw
 
So many bottles into the sea
I drank so many bitter liquors
That I got lips of stone from it
 
You gave
Me like the need to be me
Gave a sense to my why's
You killed the fear
Sleeping there, sleeping there
In my arms
 
You-ou-ou-ou-ou
You’re the one that’s making me strong
I’ll be looking, looking for
You-ou-ou-ou-ou
Like the melody of my song
 
You-ou-ou-ou-ou
You’re the one that’s making me strong
I’ll be looking, looking for
You-ou-ou-ou-ou
Like the melody of my song
 
Along our injuries
And our casualness
It's when you don't believe in at all,
That you will find a paradise lost
 
Within ou-u-u-rselves
Oh, you, you, you
 
You-ou-ou-ou-ou
You’re the one that’s making me strong
I’ll be looking, looking for
You-ou-ou-ou-ou
Like the melody of my song
(Like the melody of my song)
 
You gave
Me like the need to be me
Gave a sense to my why's
You killed the fear
Sleeping there, sleeping there
In my arms
 
You-ou-ou-ou-ou
You’re the one that’s making me strong
I’ll be looking, looking for
You-ou-ou-ou-ou
Like the melody of my song
 
You-ou-ou
