You had that look
Haggard, indifferent
But which, for me
Was a moment's magic
Then you had those words
So short, so common
That ran across my skin
Making my hands tremble
It wasn't much
But it stuck with me
You make my heart smile
Make my eardrums vibrate
From laughs to tears
And from hours to moments
Time can well run
Run full speed
We'll walk
You make my heart smile
Make my eardrums vibrate
From laughs to tears
And from hours to moments
Time can well run
Run full speed
We'll walk, yeah
Just so it lasts
Just so it lasts
You had that gesture
So gentle, so docile
Tousling your fringe
Opening your lashes wide
And it was obvious
In those trivial moments
No speeches or secrets
We danced on the same wire
You make my heart smile
Make my eardrums vibrate
From laughs to tears
And from hours to moments
Time can well run
Run full speed
We'll walk
You make my heart smile
Make my eardrums vibrate
From laughs to tears
And from hours to moments
Time can well run
Run full speed
We'll walk, yeah
Just so it lasts
Just so it lasts
It wasn't grand
But it was enough for me
You make my heart smile
Make my eardrums vibrate
From laughs to tears
And from hours to moments
Time can well run
Run full speed
We'll walk
You make my heart smile
Make my eardrums vibrate
From laughs to tears
And from hours to moments
Time can well run
Run full speed
We'll walk, yeah
Just so it lasts
Just so it lasts
Just so it lasts
Just so it lasts
Just so it lasts

SONG MEANING

Petit K turns an everyday encounter into a little fireworks show of feelings. One look, a few ordinary words, the gentle sweep of a hair lock — that is all it takes for the narrator’s heart to spark. In “Juste Pour Que Ça Dure” he celebrates those tiny, almost invisible moments that suddenly make life feel electric. The song glides between shivers, laughter, and quiet awe, proving that magic often hides inside the simplest gestures.

At its core, this track is a love letter to the present tense. Even while time races forward “à toute allure,” the singer promises to keep walking beside his muse, stretching each second “just so it lasts.” It is an invitation to slow down, tune in to every smile and heartbeat, and hold on to the fragile beauty of now — juste pour que ça dure.
