Billie Eilish – L'AMOUR DE MA VIE Lyrics | Genius Lyrics

[Part I: L'AMOUR DE MA VIE]

[Chorus]
I wish you the best for the rest of your life
Felt sorry for you when I looked in your eyes
But I need to confess, I told you a lie
I said you
You were the love of my life
The love of my life

[Verse]
Did I break your heart?
Did I waste your time?
I tried to be there for you
Then you tried to break mine


[Refrain]
It isn't asking for a lot for an apology
For making me feel like it'd kill you if I tried to leave

You said you'd never fall in love again because of me
Then you moved on immediately
(Bum, bum, bum)

[Chorus]
But I wish you the best for the rest of your life
Felt sorry for you when I looked in your eyes
But I need to confess, I told you a lie (Told you a lie)
When I said you (I said you)
You (You) were the love of my life
The love of my life

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
