What Does a Young Girl Dream About

Alizée - Gourmandises


What does a young girl dream of

While sitting by the Nile

That perhaps she'll blend into an echo

Leading her far away, to soar above


What does a young girl dream of

A girl from Africa, or Manila

That she'll wrap herself in a coat

In a bird's velvet wing


It's in the air

Without having air

That she'll be drunk with a new breath

And not with ripples of water

And in the air

Flying over everything

Twirling the wind, the hours, and the words

She was a warm-hearted girl


What does a young girl dream of

When the evening turns into night

That the aurora will present a gift

Which will make her rise up like a bird


What does a young girl dream of

While sitting by the Nile

She dreams of a river of a hundred colors, a painting

Although inside, it's fake
