We were beautiful
All the birds moved before our sky
Lost boys, lead silence
Hit hanging on the bridge
Why yes why don't you think about it?
Why yes why don't you kiss me?
On the clouds, hand in hand
Against winds and thunderstorms
Under the clouds, all Indians
All sirens on the beaches
To fly over all countries
Every night, villages and noises
As if by magic, the sleeping
We will know from up there
I am your body, a strong boy
A boy who dreams of the Lord
You will be fairy
And hang in the enchanted sky
Why yes, why don't you believe it?
Why yes why don't you kiss me?
And fly over, day and night
And hide brains
As if by magic, the sleeping
We will know from up there
Will you want me?
Will you do me?
Will you only know how to love you and me?
Will you want?
Will you like it?
Will you be able to stay my fairy, my voice?

Indochine's "Le Garçon Qui Rêve" [The Boy Who Dreams] is such a beautiful, dreamy song that really pulls you into its world. It feels like a conversation, or maybe even a plea, from someone who wants to escape reality with a loved one. The lyrics talk about being "beaux" [beautiful] and how "Tous les oiseaux s'écartaient devant notre ciel" [All the birds moved aside before our sky], which paints this picture of a powerful, almost magical connection.

There's this repeated question, "Pourquoi oui pourquoi tu ne m'embrasses pas?" [Why yes why don't you kiss me?], which really highlights a longing for intimacy and a shared journey. They imagine flying "Sur les nuages, main dans la main" [On the clouds, hand in hand] and seeing "Toutes les sirènes sur les plages" [All the mermaids on the beaches]. It's all about this fantastical escape, hoping the other person will believe in it too, asking, "Est-ce que tu sauras n'aimer que toi et moi?" [Will you know how to love only you and me?]. It's a sweet, hopeful song about wanting to share a dream-like existence with someone special.
