Green Flash
Lights, camera, action!
Someone is catching the light
But I've never done it yet
It's easy to say, but hard to do
What is a journey
Jules Verne taught me in my childhood
Loneliness gives me imagination
And I will become a hero if I try
At the foot of the clock tower
We can't see the time
But with a telescope in my hand
I can see it clear
Coral necklace, source of my magic
Have to go back to Paris, (but now)
It's my mission that I left behind
Far away over the sea
Where I see the green flash
I'll see the green flash
I'll see the green flash
I'll see the green flash
Love, smile and peace
My three words are incantations
Now I'm walking halfway
Down on my road step by step
When I feel sad sometimes
Jane Birkin was singing in my head
Yesterday Yes a day Like any day
Her old jeans style is my favourite
In the crowd of an airport lounge
We get nervous to flying
But I'm wearing red shoes
It's like a scene from a movie
The turquoise bracelet saves me in travel
Don't need an umbrella in Cherbourg
It's my mission that I left behind
Far away over the sea
Where I see the green flash
Crying, now I'm crying
Waiting, I'm waiting for the moment to see
Crying, now I'm crying
Waiting, I'm waiting for the moment
I'll see the green flash
I'll see the green flash
I'll see the green flash
Beyond the lens
Over the audience
Far away over the sea!
Someone is catching the light
But I've never done it yet
It's easy to say, but hard to do
What is a journey
Jules Verne taught me in my childhood
Loneliness gives me imagination
And I will become a hero if I try
At the foot of the clock tower
We can't see the time
But with a telescope in my hand
I can see it clear
Coral necklace, source of my magic
Have to go back to Paris, (but now)
It's my mission that I left behind
Far away over the sea
Where I see the green flash
I'll see the green flash
I'll see the green flash
I'll see the green flash
Love, smile and peace
My three words are incantations
Now I'm walking halfway
Down on my road step by step
When I feel sad sometimes
Jane Birkin was singing in my head
Yesterday Yes a day Like any day
Her old jeans style is my favourite
In the crowd of an airport lounge
We get nervous to flying
But I'm wearing red shoes
It's like a scene from a movie
The turquoise bracelet saves me in travel
Don't need an umbrella in Cherbourg
It's my mission that I left behind
Far away over the sea
Where I see the green flash
Crying, now I'm crying
Waiting, I'm waiting for the moment to see
Crying, now I'm crying
Waiting, I'm waiting for the moment
I'll see the green flash
I'll see the green flash
I'll see the green flash
Beyond the lens
Over the audience
Far away over the sea!
