I get a picture in my head when I listen to this song. The heroine is drunk at a party and someone equally inebriated says something inconsequential; that the girl's ex was stupid to end their relationship or that he still loves her no matter what he said or something like that.
The song is sung during the ensuing hangover. Lives aren't worth much, fate mocks us and our wishes, we think we can reach luck and it slips from our reach... she thought that man was The One but he's gone. It goes to reaffirm her pessimism. Somehow the idea that he still loves her, carelessly pushed forward by a mutual friend, is something that keeps her together.
If "tu m'aimais encore," how could the world be bleak? That's the point of the song. What if? What if it's not all lost?
