Storybook

Listen to me, I have beautiful dreams I can spin Dreams to linger within you Close your eyes and we'll ride my carousel I'll sing you stories of lovers whose love used to fill me And the lovers who will be For, you see, love is one thing I do well Come, let's believe love can be just as sweet as it seems Let's live on dreams In my dreams, such beautiful lovers have found me Storybook lovers surround me Nothing is real, but I'm flying Sighing, "Where, where, where is my storybook ending? Why does my golden pretending Leave me with nothing to hold but my dreams?" Oh, is it only in dreams that we find our ideal love? (Ideal love, ideal love) Are there lovers with real lives? (Are there lovers with real lives?) If you know how to feel love, show me how (Show me love, show me love) Ah, but my prince, if you can't be as sweet as you seem I'd rather dream! Come and wake me! Come be the love I can hold now! Storybook love leaves me cold now Show me the way to stop dreaming There is only one perfect storybook ending That is the end of pretending That is the moment I say, "Love me now" Et sur mon manège, l'amour toujours est chantant De mes rêves c'est le commencement Et j'espère une fin heureuse Mais la fin, la fin de l'histoire ne vient pas très doucement Pour l'histoire, il faut faire semblant Certes, je n'embrasse que mes rêves, seuls mes rêves
