Purple sky
Above my head
Violet dreams
Is all I have
White moon
Dancing alone
Pink thoughts
I am on my own.

Moon in a purple sky
dreams
Fast and furious
Reprise
Hot wheels. Engines on fire. Fast dreams. Hearts bumping.
Lotus, Ferrari, Toyota, Porsche. I’ve tried them all. As a copilot, of course! And I admit I’m a lousy one. Who cares?
I’ve never been very found of cars. They are just meant to take us from A to B, afterall. Little did I know I was about to have the time of my life. Who could have thought?
Suddenly, all my fears were washed away. The faster we went, the lighter I felt. That precious hour looked like one minute to me. Needless to say, I wanted more! I must thank my company’s CEO for his great idea. And I’ll also ask him when will we go for another ride.

A hint of Ireland
Reprise
Am I stil in Brittany?
As I go down the street
It looks like Ireland to me
Good old memories
Dancing in my mind
Green valleys
Sheperd hills
Stone houses
With colourful eyes
Mystic fog and humid air
Redhead children playing outside
And sunny days sometimes
The pub around the corner
Is missing from the pictures
Was I dreaming?
Oh, so it is France indeed
I hoped it was Ireland instead
I shall drink a bitter cider
Wishing it was a Guinness pint.

Golden dreams
Reprise
My life was made of rags
Random broken pieces
Like a ruined mill
That arouses no interest
Sadness filled my empty days
Whilst my nights were endless
And then, you came around
To release my golden dreams
And whisper velvet words
Grief brought us together
Yet, it is love that keeps us alive.

Stupid little things
Reprise
Draw me a rainbow in the blue sky
Tell me a story with a happy ending
Swim with me in the cold sea
Warm my heart
Buy me a strawberry ice cream
Fly away with me
Dance with me under the stars
Whisper me sweet words
Hide your fears and regrets
And show me only your dreams.

A gust of wind
Reprise
Do you remember the pink house, up on the hill?
Ask me to meet you there and I will
Do your remember thinking life was a fairytale?
Drawing fishes that looked like whales
Do you remember the blue sea and the golden sand?
We wished those times would never end
Do you remember the scorching sun in the orange sky?
That day, we promised that our love would never die
Do you remember our deepest dreams?
They were blown away by the wind.

Violet dreams
Reprise
Violet dreams
Floating in a child’s head
Vanished away
By the afternoon wind
Hope has left us
Empty remain our hearts
Love is no longer au rendez-vous
We fall apart
Set me free
Make a memory out of it
Things will get better
One day
I still believe
In my childhood violet dreams.
