You Could Have - Lene Marlin

What if she twisted
The truth to fit in
Hide all the scars
Where to begin
There are so many
The tales of her life
Some are too deep
Cut with a knife
Some of them will never
Never disappear
Just like the screams
And the crying she'll hear

You could come to get her
You could have
You could come to protect her
You should have
Somehow she managed, she's still around

Every night she closes her eyes
Talks to the angels then cries
But no one came to take her away
Just the way it is
Nothing would change
Always like this
Then she just gave up
Gave up trying
A part of her still
She was hoping

You could come to get her
You could have
You could come to protect her
You should have
Somehow she managed, she's still around
You could come to guard her
You could have
You could come to save her
You should have
Somehow she managed, she's still around

Let's make it easy
Let's twist the truth cos
Sometimes it hurts too bad
For you to know

You could come to get her
You could have
You could come to protect her
You should have
Somehow she managed, she's still around
You could come to guard her
You could have
You could come to save her
You should have
Somehow she managed, she's still around

Et si elle se tordait
La vérité pour s'intégrer
Cachez toutes les cicatrices
Où commencer
Il y en a tellement
Les contes de sa vie
Certains sont trop profonds
Couper avec un couteau
Certains d'entre eux ne
Ne disparais jamais
Tout comme les cris
Et les pleurs qu'elle entendra

Tu pourrais venir la chercher
Tu aurais pu
Tu pourrais venir la protéger
Tu aurais dû\nElle a réussi, elle est toujours là

Chaque nuit, elle ferme les yeux
Parle aux anges puis pleure
Mais personne n'est venu pour l'emmener
Juste la façon dont il est
Rien ne changerait
Toujours comme ça
Puis elle a juste abandonné
A renoncé à essayer
Une partie d'elle encore
Elle espérait

Tu pourrais venir la chercher
Tu aurais pu
Tu pourrais venir la protéger
Tu aurais dû\nElle a réussi, elle est toujours là
Tu pourrais venir la garder
Tu aurais pu
Tu pourrais venir la sauver
Tu aurais dû\nElle a réussi, elle est toujours là

Rendons les choses faciles
Tordons la vérité cos
Parfois ça fait trop mal
Pour que vous sachiez

Tu pourrais venir la chercher
Tu aurais pu
Tu pourrais venir la protéger
Tu aurais dû\nElle a réussi, elle est toujours là
Tu pourrais venir la garder
Tu aurais pu
Tu pourrais venir la sauver
Tu aurais dû\nElle a réussi, elle est toujours là
