Dua Lipa – These Walls (feat. Pierre de Maere) Lyrics
[Verse 1: Dua Lipa]
Maybe we should switch careers
‘Cause, baby, you know no one beats our poker faces
And when the night ends up in tears
Wake up and we blame it all on being wasted
Oh, this love is fadin’
So much we’re not sayin’
But if these walls could talk
(They’d say) “Enough”
(They’d say) “Give up”
If these walls could talk
(They’d say) “You know”
(They’d say) “You’re fucked”
It’s not supposed to hurt this much
Oh, if these walls could talk
They’d tell us to break up
(These walls, these walls)
(These walls) They’d tell us to break up
(These walls, these walls)
(These walls, these walls)
Yeah (Mm)
J’ai tout gâché bien sûr (Ah)
À croire à tes histoires, aux va-et-vient chorégraphiés (Mm)
Tout oublier (Ah, ah), c’est dans mes habitudes
À croire que ça me charme de nous voir nous déchirer
Dis-moi que tu m’aimes comme ils font au cinéma
Moi j’attends les beaux jours
Mais jamais ils ne viennent dans tes bras [Chorus: Dua Lipa & Pierre de Maere, Dua Lipa]
But if these walls could talk
(They’d say) “Enough”
(They’d say) “Give up” (I know)
Si tu m’aimes encore
(They’d say) “Dis-le”
(They’d say) “Plus fort”
It’s not supposed to hurt this much
On s’est donné rendez-vous là-haut
C’est le dernier rendez-vous des amoureux vaincus
Mm, ooh, les amoureux vaincus
Mm, ooh, les amoureux vaincus
[Bridge: Pierre de Maere, Dua Lipa & Pierre de Maere]C’est fini mon amour
On s’est donné, donné, donné, donné
Ils sont là, les beaux jours
On s’est donné, donné
But if these walls could talk
(They’d say) “Enough”
(They’d say) “Give up” (Give it up, give it up)
Si tu m’aimes encore
(They’d say) “Dis-le”
(They’d say) “Plus fort”
It’s not supposed to hurt this much
On s’est donné rendez-vous là-haut
C’est le dernier rendez-vous des amoureux vaincus
(These walls, these walls)
(These walls) They’d tell us to break up
(These walls, these walls)
(They would tell us)
Les amoureux vaincus (“Break up”)
