Lyrics and translation
Original
Accroche toi! Ferme les yeux, concentre toi.
Tes bijoux ne valent pas ta présence, tu ouvriras les yeux le jour où. . . Accroche toi!
Ferme les yeux, concentre toi.
Tes bijoux ne valent pas ta présence, tu ouvriras les yeux le jour où. . À quoi me servent tes cadeaux? À quoi me servent tes cadeaux?
Tu n'as pas su me soutenir, tu n'as pas su me retenir.
À quoi me servent tes cadeaux?
À quoi me servent tes cadeaux? Tu n'as pas su me soutenir, tu n'as pas su me retenir.
Lui : J'ai accroché les plus belles perles autour de ton cou.
Elle : Oui mais tu n'as pas su sauver notre couple. Lui : Bébé pourquoi cette ingratitude? Elle :
Pour te faire payer ton attitude.
Lui : Tu es immature, tu dis ça pour m'faire mal, tu n'as jamais craché sur mon statut ni sur ma thune.
Elle : Reprends ta tune, c'est ton absence qui m'a tué, je t'aimais mais là tu m'as montré ta vraie nature!
À quoi me servent tes cadeaux?
À quoi me servent tes cadeaux? Tu n'as pas su me soutenir, tu n'as pas su me retenir.
À quoi me servent tes cadeaux? À quoi me servent tes cadeaux?
Tu n'as pas su me soutenir, tu n'as pas su me retenir.
Eh! Je n'veux plus vivre avec un fantôme, même si pour moi tu dévalises et la Place
Vendôme.
Même si tu m'offrais des bijoux par centaines, j'n'ai plus aucun sentiment pour toi, je m'en vais! Lui : C'est ça va t en, ça m'fera des vacances.
Rends moi les clés d'la caisse et claque la porte en partant.
J'n'ai pas de temps à perdre, y a tant! Tu n'es pas si importante, des comme toi y en a tant.
Elle : Aucune autre ne t'aimera vraiment. Elles t' aimeront pour les sacs et les vêtements.
À chaque fois qu't'ouvriras la bouche, elles riront bêtement et à pleines dents le jour de ton enterrement. Tu pensais qu'tes cadeaux me donneraient le sourire?
Tu pensais qu'tes cadeaux remplaceraient les souvenirs?
Mais j'ai enfin trouvé la force de te l'dire : j'me tire, tu n'as pas su me retenir!
Accroche toi! Ferme les yeux, concentre toi.
Tes bijoux ne valent pas ta présence, tu ouvriras les yeux le jour où. . . Accroche toi!
Ferme les yeux, concentre toi.
Tes bijoux ne valent pas ta présence, tu ouvriras les yeux le jour où. . À quoi me servent tes cadeaux?
À quoi me servent tes cadeaux?
Tu n'as pas su me soutenir, tu n'as pas su me retenir.
À quoi me servent tes cadeaux?
À quoi me servent tes cadeaux? Tu n'as pas su me soutenir, tu n'as pas su me retenir.
Elle se sauve, j'en souffre, elle ne veut plus de mes bijoux.
Elle se sauve, j'en -souffre, elle s'est délivrée de son joug.
-À quoi me servent tes cadeaux?
À quoi me servent tes cadeaux? Tu n'as pas su me soutenir, tu n'as pas su me retenir.
À quoi me servent tes cadeaux?
À quoi me servent tes cadeaux? Tu n'as pas su me soutenir, tu n'as pas su me retenir.
Tu n'as jamais su me soutenir, tu n'as jamais su me retenir.
Tu n'as jamais su me soutenir, tu n'as jamais su me retenir. Tu n'as pas su me retenir.
Tu n'as jamais su me soutenir, tu n'as jamais su me retenir.
Tu n'as jamais su me soutenir, tu -n'as jamais su me retenir. -À quoi me servent tes cadeaux?
À quoi me servent tes cadeaux -? -Tu n'as pas su me retenir.
À quoi me servent tes cadeaux?
À quoi me servent tes cadeaux?

Hang in there! Close your eyes, concentrate.
Your jewelry is not worth your presence, you will open your eyes the day. . . Hang in there!
Close your eyes, concentrate.
Your jewelry is not worth your presence, you will open your eyes the day. . What are your gifts for me? What are your gifts for me?
You didn't know how to support me, you didn't know how to hold me back.
What are your gifts for me?
What are your gifts for me? You didn't know how to support me, you didn't know how to hold me back.
Him: I hung the most beautiful pearls around your neck.
Her: Yes, but you weren't able to save our relationship. Him: Baby, why this ingratitude? She:
To make you pay for your attitude.
Him: You're immature, you're saying that to hurt me, you've never spit on my status or my money.
Her: Take back your tune, it was your absence that killed me, I loved you but there you showed me your true nature!
What are your gifts for me?
What are your gifts for me? You didn't know how to support me, you didn't know how to hold me back.
What are your gifts for me? What are your gifts for me?
You didn't know how to support me, you didn't know how to hold me back.
Hey! I don't want to live with a ghost anymore, even if for me you rob and the Place
Vendôme.
Even if you gave me jewelry by the hundreds, I no longer have any feelings for you, I'm leaving! Him: That's it, it'll be a vacation for me.
Give me the keys to the cash register and slam the door when you leave.
I don't have time to waste, there's so much! You're not that important, there are so many like you.
Her: No one else will truly love you. They will love you for the bags and the clothes.
Every time you open your mouth, they will laugh stupidly and loudly on the day of your funeral. Did you think your gifts would make me smile?
Did you think your gifts would replace the memories?
But I finally found the strength to tell you: I'm leaving, you couldn't hold me back!
Hang in there! Close your eyes, concentrate.
Your jewelry is not worth your presence, you will open your eyes the day. . . Hang in there!
Close your eyes, concentrate.
Your jewelry is not worth your presence, you will open your eyes the day. . What are your gifts for me?
What are your gifts for me?
You didn't know how to support me, you didn't know how to hold me back.
What are your gifts for me?
What are your gifts for me? You didn't know how to support me, you didn't know how to hold me back.
She runs away, I suffer, she no longer wants my jewelry.
She is running away, I suffer, she has freed herself from her yoke.
-What are your gifts for me?
What are your gifts for me? You didn't know how to support me, you didn't know how to hold me back.
What are your gifts for me?
What are your gifts for me? You didn't know how to support me, you didn't know how to hold me back.
You never knew how to support me, you never knew how to hold me back.
You never knew how to support me, you never knew how to hold me back. You didn't know how to hold me back.
You never knew how to support me, you never knew how to hold me back.

What use are your gifts to me? -You didn't know how to hold me back.
