Just saw Charlotte perform this at Bluesfest in Ottawa - the entire crowd was completely silent listening to her angelic voice! Such an amazing and beautiful song 😍
She was put in as a last minute replacement for Aya nakamura at Osheaga and while I was bummed I wouldn’t see aya, I absolutely loveddd Charlotte! Amazing performer too, the whole crowd was going crazy for her🤩
Lyrics: 0:01 [Verse 1] 0:15 Maybe it's the fact that I can’t go back, no Maybe it's the river's not much calmer now I can hear the storm knocking at my door And I just wanna answer I think I know it’s name 'Cause I'm the one to blame Always chasing a disaster Now I have to leave, just so I can breathe Please don't tell me that you miss me It's your way to change I just need a little rain I'm just looking for a better me [Chorus] 1:06 Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh I can't be those things next to you Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh I can't be those things next to you [Verse 2] 1:42 I thought we’d be forever, but I’m changing like the weather Up, down, got scared, so I went and cut my hair As our words they lose their meaning I just need to feel my feeling And it's too late to change I’m already on a plane I want it faster, chasing a disaster Just so I can pick up all the pieces Put 'em back without a reason when I'm there Even if I'm scared, please don’t tell me that you miss me I wanna be better, I wanna be new But I can't be those things next to you [Chorus] 2:23 Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh I can't be those things next to you Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh I can't be those things next to you Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh I can't be those things next to you [Outro] 3:12 I wanna be better, I wanna be new But I can't be those things next to you
She's truly an amazing performer (and song writer), saw her in Paris and she sounds even more amazing (if possible) live! Hope she keeps getting the recognition she deserves she's just so gooood
Heard this for the first time live in her concert and I was in awe. The chorus sounds like her crying it’s so beautifully touching. Such a heartbreaking song
Oh my gawd I can't explain what hearing this just made me feel. It's been a long time since a song made me shiver... Not only shiver, she took my breath away. Thank you Charlotte for making me feel something like this again
Absolutely incredible, I will forever think she is the greatest voice of our generation ❤ The lyrics always hit a spot I didn't expect, merci Charlotte!
She performed this at the Indie Awards show in Toronto (that everyone totally went to just for her 30 minute set lol). Been waiting to hear this in full again since!! So so beautiful.
I’m one of your biggest fan since day 1 Charlotte and I’m so proud of you that you’re on Colors!!! 🥹 this song is just amazing, tu es la best, tu rend le Québec très fier!! Love you ❤️
damn it. i dont usually cry listening to music even tho i'm crazy about it, but this is one, wow... i cried hard. the way that she navigated thru it is so freakin beautiful and emotional can't wait to the LA concert on nov 7th!

I've been a fan of Charlotte since 2016. Right when this song started playing, instant tears down my face. I can relate to this song do much right now in my life. Every time she seems to do this. Especialy with her last album. She's out of this world amazing!!!
Charlotte Cardin had me in awe. Goosebumps and tears...she is easily of the BEST vocalists I have EVER seen live (in Los Angeles at the El Rey Theater on 11/07/2023) She deserves every wondrous accolade.
Just saw Charlotte perform this at Bluesfest in Ottawa - the entire crowd was completely silent listening to her angelic voice! Such an amazing and beautiful song 😍
I was there it was just surreal!✨
Was there. She’s amazing ❤
Was there, she was really great!!
She was put in as a last minute replacement for Aya nakamura at Osheaga and while I was bummed I wouldn’t see aya, I absolutely loveddd Charlotte! Amazing performer too, the whole crowd was going crazy for her🤩
Her voice is liquid gold✨
This woman has an insanely beautiful voice and an amazing control over it . What a beautiful interpreter
Such an underrated artist, incredibly talented and passionate about music. Stunning performance 🤍
Always sold out for her shows ! I don’t think she ´s underrated … i think she is way above all this
@poule420 100% agree
If you ever get to meet her, she's an angel ! A truthfully gentle person. Very humble too!
I met her outside her London show at Omera in 2018 and she was wonderful!
Love is blind brought me here. Beautiful song 😭
Me too.
Same!!! Just came to look for this song. Already in my playlist 🎶
Same here
SAME
Same
No wayyyy
So proud she made it on the Colors show
🇨🇦 & QC represent!
I just put the phone over my belly to make my baby listens to this angelic voice 🤍 Thank you Charlotte
Magnifique ! Bravo Charlotte! Tout le Québec te suit et sommes fière de toi !
One of the best female voices on earth right now.
Lyrics: 0:01
[Verse 1] 0:15
Maybe it's the fact that I can’t go back, no
Maybe it's the river's not much calmer now
I can hear the storm knocking at my door
And I just wanna answer
I think I know it’s name
'Cause I'm the one to blame
Always chasing a disaster
Now I have to leave, just so I can breathe
Please don't tell me that you miss me
It's your way to change
I just need a little rain
I'm just looking for a better me
[Chorus] 1:06
Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh
I can't be those things next to you
Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh
I can't be those things next to you
[Verse 2] 1:42
I thought we’d be forever, but I’m changing like the weather
Up, down, got scared, so I went and cut my hair
As our words they lose their meaning
I just need to feel my feeling
And it's too late to change
I’m already on a plane
I want it faster, chasing a disaster
Just so I can pick up all the pieces
Put 'em back without a reason when I'm there
Even if I'm scared, please don’t tell me that you miss me
I wanna be better, I wanna be new
But I can't be those things next to you
[Chorus] 2:23
Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh
I can't be those things next to you
Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh
I can't be those things next to you
Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh
I can't be those things next to you
[Outro] 3:12
I wanna be better, I wanna be new
But I can't be those things next to you
“It’s too late to change” is the lyric not “it’s your way to change”
My favorite artist and absolutely incredible live! Making Montreal proud!
She's truly an amazing performer (and song writer), saw her in Paris and she sounds even more amazing (if possible) live!
Hope she keeps getting the recognition she deserves she's just so gooood
Charlotte is a french-canadian treasure and I am so proud to see her in a COLORS video !! ❤
Heard this for the first time live in her concert and I was in awe. The chorus sounds like her crying it’s so beautifully touching. Such a heartbreaking song
Her songs are always refreshing, soft, and original
She debuted this at her concert in Toronto in June… absolutely amazing I was standing there in awe. So happy to hear it again
Oh my gawd
I can't explain what hearing this just made me feel. It's been a long time since a song made me shiver... Not only shiver, she took my breath away.
Thank you Charlotte for making me feel something like this again
When she starts the 'oooohoooh' part at 1:07.. God, you either feel it or you don't. Such a great artist!
TEARS as soon as she says “i can’t be those things next to you” 😩
Season 6 episode 5, and now im here :D
Absolutely incredible, I will forever think she is the greatest voice of our generation ❤ The lyrics always hit a spot I didn't expect, merci Charlotte!
She speaks to my soul like no other. So grateful for her art ♥
Charlotte needs to write song that will act as an antidote to this song so I can stop crying 😭
She's greatly talented.
Masterpiece,she never cease to amaze with her talent 🖤🖤
all these emotion in the voice
Once again, incredible. A stunning song and a stunning performance. She never misses.
She performed this at the Indie Awards show in Toronto (that everyone totally went to just for her 30 minute set lol). Been waiting to hear this in full again since!! So so beautiful.
Sounds like it should be in a movie
Goosebumps from South Africa, sending love💗
Saw Charlotte open up for Chet Faker in Chicago and was blown away. Incredibly underrated talent 💛
"I wanna be better, i wanna be new, but i can't be those things next to you" who else can relate🙄
What an artist she is! Im blown away everytime. Love from 🇷🇸
Enchanting voice, love the song. Charlotte, you gained a new fan.
I follow Charlotte's work since a few years from now, I almost jumped when I saw the notification of Colors with her name on it
Powerful lyrics. Beautiful voice. Beautiful song💛
