It's vacation, we're going on a trip
Two hours early and lots of luggage
A pounding heart, sandwiches in plastic
Summer is here, it's really fantastic
A voice says 'All aboard', we're off on an adventure
That's it, this time, our train has left
Joy, the wind, heading for Italy
At night, I lie awake before falling asleep
Counting the towns, the trees whizzing by
It's much better than the car for going on an adventure
It's vacation, it's vacation in Italy
It's vacation, pizzas, horns and spaghetti
It's vacation, it's vacation in Italy
There's screaming, crying, laughing, it's noisy
It's full of flowers, sunshine and fruit
We eat ice cream of every color
We ride around, Vespas and tank tops
It's much better than the car for going on an adventure
In the afternoon, I make friends
Fat ones, skinny ones, tall ones and short ones
In the evening, we go out, we exchange addresses
We talk, we sing, we make promises
Warm sand and an azure sky, the adventure
It's vacation, it's vacation in Italy
It's vacation, it's vacation in Italy
Since I got back to Paris, I only think of you all the time
I hope we'll see each other again next year
'Cause even for next year, I've already told everyone
That I'd like to spend my vacation one more time with you in Italy
It's vacation, it's vacation in Italy
It's vacation, pizzas, horns and spaghetti
It's vacation, it's vacation in Italy
