But I love you

[ Camille Lellouche]

But don’t give me that! You know,

What is wrong with me,

Don’t expect too much

You know, the estrangements are profound

Without me, don’t hold on too tightly

If you have any doubts , don’t hold on too tightly

If it costs you, don’t let me leave you

Even though I am sure of myself

I give you everything that I have,

So try to see in me that...

I love you

But I love you

I love you, I love you

I love you, as strong as I can

I love you, and I do my best

[ Grand Corps Malade]

I have been told “ wait!

You will see, love is a big fire.”

It sizzles, It illuminates, It shines, It warms ,It stings the eyes

It sends hundreds of fireflies up there to the sky

Suddenly it lights up and it sheds lights on the world and city differently

We lit the match for sparks of our beginnings

We fed this fireplace with our overindulgence, with our exaggerations

We loved each other more than anything, Alone in our own little world

These flames drove us crazy

We forgot that in the end, the fire burns

[ Camille Lellouche]

And I love you

I love you, I love you

I love you, as strong as I can

I love you, and I do my best

[Grand Corps Malade]

I approach very close to our fire and I am sweating with bitterness

I see these yellow and blue flames are dancing, and the passion is burning

Why when love is strong it makes us vulnerable and fragile

I think of us and I stagger, why since then nothing is easy

I love you on fire, I love you in gold

I love you anxiously, I love you strongly

I love you for both of us, I love you wrongly

It’s perilous, I still love you

Well it is true it pierces me

I love you ponderously, I love you wobbly

Of course, it devours me

I know so much that I love you poorly

[ Camille Lellouche]

If I move on with you

It’s because I see myself doing this dance in your arms

Expectations, I don’t have any

You give me so much love, so much strength

That I can no longer do without you

If my words hurt you, it is not your fault

My wounds are from yesterday, There are days which are harder than others

If my words weigh on you

It is not my fault

But I love you

I love you, I Love you

I love you

I love you, I love you

I love you, as strong as I can

I love you, and I do my best ( you love me, and you do your best)

But, I love you ( I love you)

You did a very nice job there. A heartfelt translation.

Just a couple of details:

too strong -> rather "strongly", "I love you too strong" rather makes me think of "I love you when you're too strong"
(same problem in a few different places)

alors essaie de voir -> it's her asking him to see (I'm giving you everything I have, so try to...)

et je vacille, pourquoi depuis rien n'est facile -> I'd rather say "stagger" for "vaciller", and the end of the sentence got lost somewhere

Évidemment ça me dévore -> rather "obviously", "of course"

I love you badly -> that's a bit ambiguous. The French clearly means "the wrong way" or "poorly"

C'est que je me vois -> "it is because I see myself..." (this pesky "c'est que" again ;) )
