Déçue Lyrics in English Carla

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Déçue by Carla from French to English.
You let me down
Yeah, you let me down
I can't do anything anymore
It's too late
Yeah, you let me down
I gave everything for you, for us
I was sincere
That's in the past, yeah
Yeah, you let me down
Always busy
When you were never there
I was thinking about tomorrow
But I always came after you
For me, a new day rises
A new ray of sunshine
My heart went ow ow ow
It managed to find the spark
Thanks for making me believe
That love exists
I love when you look at me
When you stare at me
Thanks for making me believe
That love exists
I lay down my arms
My heart lays down its arms
I want us to fly far from here
Mexico, Rio, Bali
It's crazy how you affect me
There's only you in my thoughts
I want us to fly far from here
Mexico, Rio, Bali
Waiting's useless now
'Cause we love each other endlessly
You let me down
Yeah, you let me down
I can't do anything anymore
It's too late
Yeah, you let me down
He knew how to reassure me
My heart's safe
At first, a little shy
But you knew how to tame me
I'm in love, it's crazy
By your side, it's so wicked
I remember your promises
And that you'd never let me fall
So I want only you
I want you to take me far away
I trust you, take my hand
I don't see myself without you
Thanks for making me believe
That love exists
I love when you look at me
When you stare at me
Thanks for making me believe
That love exists
I lay down my arms
My heart lays down its arms
I want us to fly far from here
Mexico, Rio, Bali
It's crazy how you affect me
There's only you in my thoughts
I want us to fly far from here
Mexico, Rio, Bali
Waiting's useless now
'Cause we love each other endlessly
Outro
Mexico, Rio, Bali
There's only you in my thoughts
Mexico, Rio, Bali
Waiting's useless now
'Cause we love each other endlessly

SONG MEANING

Ever been let down by someone you trusted? That is exactly where Carla’s “Déçue” starts: a punchy hook repeating Tu m’as déçue that pins down the sting of betrayal. She explains how she poured her heart into the relationship, waited for someone who was never there, and ended up feeling like second place. The beat may be bright, yet the feeling is heavy — turning those early lines into an anthem for anyone who has whispered “You disappointed me” under their breath.

The mood soon flips. Carla meets someone new who restores her faith in love, makes her heart spark again, and invites sun-drenched dreams of escaping together to Mexico, Rio, Bali. Gratitude replaces anger, trust beats out fear, and love is suddenly “à l’infini.” By the last chorus, the weapons are down, the past is history, and a passport-stamped future looks wide open. In just a few minutes, “Déçue” moves from heartbreak to hope, proving that every disappointment can be the first step toward something infinitely better.
