Under your closed eyelids She came, she was dancing And she started to tease you In the pink lights of your sleep In shades of rose Under your closed eyelids She came and took the pose In the hollow of your ear She came, she was singing A song of joy and fear A melody that brings A thunder of applause In the hollow of your ear She sang "la vie en rose" To the bottom of your heart She came, she was crying Tears beautiful as art A masterpiece of drama Rebel without a cause To the bottom of your heart She came and played in prose And come tomorrow morning You wake up and you see That this was just a dream A little fairy trip Into the land of Oz You will keep your eyes closed and the happy refrain Will start over again
