HOW CAN YOU LOVE
Texte Sophia, musique Mathias Duplessy
Just before I came to France
I never dated anybody
But then I met this guy
And I fell in love
But I have to tell him now
What is my true story
It’s a story of suffering
Something I never told
Tell me how can you love
When nobody’s ever loved you
Tell me how can you love
When all you’ve met in life is abuse and pain
Truth is all I know of men
Is what those guards in Libya
Did to me again at night
And every night I prayed
Those men come back in my dreams
But now I’m strong and healthy
So I kick them out in the night
Until I’m free to breathe
Tell me how can you love
When nobody’s ever loved you
Tell me how can you love
When all you’ve met in life
is abuse and pain
So I pray one day my nightmares
Will turn into dreams
And that day I know for sure
I’ll be ready to love
