♪ Nobody gets me like you ♪

♪ How am I supposed to let you go ♪

♪ Only like myself when I'm with you ♪

♪ Nobody gets me, you do ♪

♪ You do ♪

(engine rumbling)

- "I wish it didn't have to be this way, I really do."

"Sometimes in life, we have to protect our own heart."

"Even if it means ripping it out of our chest."

"Au revoir mon amour."
