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
