Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The starlight shimmers over Lac Léman
'Cross sweeping lawns
In evening gowns, they stroll along
Beyond the villa to the grand hotel
Where all seems well
The evening casts a languid spell
[Chorus]
"Let's fall in love beside the lake in Évian
Let's have another drink and share each other's dreams
Let the water wash away these troubled times
There's nothing we can do for them in Évian"
[Verse 2]
She left the homeland back in '17
Herself, a refugee
Although it seems a distant dream
She asked them, "What did they decide to do
To help them through?"
He said, "Don't let it worry you"
[Chorus]
"Let's fall in love beside the lake in Évian
Let's have another drink and share each other's dreams
Let the water wash away these troubled times
There's nothing we can do for them in Évian"
[Outro]
La, la-la-la
La, la-la-la
La, la-la-la-la
La, la-la-la
La, la-la-la
La, la-la, la-la-la
Let's fall in love beside the lake
