From Now On

From now on, I go ahead
Facing the hurricane, the storms, and the winds
So that nothing stops you anymore
And so that you feel ready

From now on, I think of you
Because if tomorrow surely won't be for me
I will have opened all the doors
So that you feel stronger

Oh, live to live
I no longer know
I don't know
I don't want
Waiting for your steps
Waiting, you're not here
Oh, live, survive
I don't want anymore
I don't want
I don't know
Where is that star
Toward which I should steer my sail

From now on
From now on
From now on

From now on, forgive me
If fear sometimes makes me say nonsense
I will manage to keep quiet
And if I lie, it is to please you

From now on, if I am here
If my hands reach out to you once more
It is my last prayer
I will leave the light ahead 

Oh, living to laugh
I no longer know
I don’t know
I don’t want to
Hearing your footsteps
Hearing my heart beat
Oh, living without laughter
I don’t want to anymore
I don’t want to
I don’t know
I would like, before my departure
To cross paths with your breath, your gaze
To touch your fingers but not too late

Dorénavant

Nearer
