[English]
I never planned to adopt one day
My child, I mostly had to adapt
Genes aren’t the only thing that make a family
Humans loving each other are enough
And if the storm hits us, you and me
We'll face it together, just the two of us
And if the storm hits us, you and me
Take my hand, stepdad
...
I wasn’t expecting you
I won’t let you go
Even without the same blood, we’ll love each other
No, I’d never take the place of the first one who said “I love you” to you
On your face, I see his face, and that’s how beautiful you are
Between us, I admit, it’s me who’s intruded
In his life, right there, in the life where she asked for nothing
And if the storm hits us, you and me
We’ll face it together, just the two of us
And if the storm hits us, you and me
Take my hand, stepdad
...
I wasn’t expecting you
I won’t let you go
Even without the same blood, we’ll love each other
...
We’ll love each other
...
I never planned to adopt one day
In all honesty, it’s you who made it happen
Genes aren’t the only thing that make a family
As long as we love each other
And if the storm hits us, you and me
We’ll face it together, just the two of us
And if the storm hits us, you and me
Take my hand, say take it
I wasn’t expecting you
I won’t let you go
Even without the same blood, we’ll love each other
...
Even without the same blood, we’ll love each other
...
