Alternative (London) Lyrics: They say times are hard for dreamers But they won't be hard for me When all my dreams have gone as planned And I can see who's falling down And though they do not see me I am reaching out my hand Inside the train Out through the glass My finger tracing I see myself in every face that's racing past On the train in Paris Half a mile from Sacré-Cœur The city's waking up for me And I can see what each of them has lost or locked inside And suddenly I hold the key I turn the lock and disappear And all it takes is one more step and then I'm hеre Just me behind thе door It isn't what I have It's only what I have in store That matters now The past can only fade As everything I'll ever need is here This is how my world gets made They say times are hard for dreamers And who knows? Maybe they are People seem stuck or lost at sea And I might be a dreamer but it's gotten me this far And that is far enough for me Look out my window There's a view Of other windows My own museum full of paintings I look through Where everything is clear It isn't where I am It's only where I'll go from here What matters now As I am not afraid As everything I'll ever need appears This is how my world gets Made

夢ばかり見ていたら 生きづらいよと 人はいうけど でもこれしかないの 荷物をまとめて さあ行くのよ 列車に飛び乗り 窓の外流れる景色 指でなぞる パリで列車を降り モンマルトルまでの 道を行く 空き部屋の張り紙 鍵を握りしめて 二階へ ドアを開けたなら 新しい世界がそこに 待っていたの もう迷うことなんて なにもない ここなら始められる 思い描いてた世界を ここに作るの 夢ばかり見ていたら 生きづらいよと 人はいうけど 夢見がちな自分を どうすることも できないのよ 窓から覗けば 美術館のよう たくさんの絵が飾られている 今わかるわ 何もかもここから始まるの 不思議よ 怖くはない 思い描いてた世界を ここに作る WOW WOW

[AMÉLIE] ‘Blijf niet heel je leven dromen’ hoor ik al mijn leven lang Maar ik ben heel goed voorbereid De eerste stap naar buiten, ik loop snel tot aan het hoofdstation en voel mezelf bevrijd Stap op de trein, kijk uit het raam zie zoveel steden die ik niet ken, maar toch onthoud ik elke naam Aankomst in Parijs, ik zie daarginds de Sacré-Cœur De stad is vrolijk en gastvrij Een bord zegt: “leegstaand huis met uitzicht, op deuxième étage” En plots, de sleutel is van mij De deur staat open op een kier Ik stap naar binnen, sluit de deur, nu ben ik hier! Beschermd door deze deur begint mijn nieuwe leven, ik neem afscheid van de sleur Die is voorbij. Ik leef in het moment! En alles wat ik nodig heb is hier ‘K heb zo’n leven nooit gekend ‘Blijf niet heel je leven dromen’ lijkt wellicht een wijze raad, maar er is niemand die ‘t begrijpt Ik ben dan wel een dromer maar na jarenlang geduld zijn al mijn dromen nu gerijpt Zie door het raam een stad vol licht, uit alle ramen ‘T is net een ingelijst geschilderd vergezicht! Ik leef en voel me fijn! Waar ik me nu bevind is waar ik morgen niet zal zijn, want ik ga door En heus, ik ben niet bang! Want alles wat ik nodig heb is hier ‘K wil dit leven al zo lang

@@charley2475 I mean it does hit a D, which some altos can struggle with, and it’s in a weird spot in my voice so it may in others too.

Lebe deinen Traum Man sagt träume nicht dein Leben, lebe lieber deinen Traum Und Träume hab ich viel zu viel Als Kind allein auf mich gestellt Gefloh´n in meine eig´ne Welt Doch nun hab ich ein Ziel Ich nehm den Zug um kurz nach Drei Am Fenster fliegen Die Orte namenlos und stumm An mir vorbei Ankunft in Paris und dann hinauf zur Sacre Coeur Montmartre macht sich für mich fein Ein Schild sagt: Appartement zu mieten Mit Interieur Es soll so sein, da zieh ich ein Ich dreh den Knauf und schau hinein Ein letzter Schritt und ich bin immer noch allein Mit mir und dieser Tür Wie find ich was mir fehlt, wenn ich mich weiter isolier? Es wird nur stark, wer sich dem Leben stellt Ja einmal kommt der Tag an dem ich’s wag Und dann stell ich mich der Welt Man sagt träume nicht dein Leben Doch ein Mensch der fühlt wie ich Dem fällt das leider nicht so leicht Der bleibt vielleicht ein Träumer In der Welt allein mit sich Weil er die Leute nie erreicht Ich schau zum Fenster raus und seh Nur andre Fenster Ne Galerie aus Bildern die ich nicht versteh Wohin geh ich von hier? Ich werde es erst seh´n Wenn ich es irgendwann riskier Es wird nur stark, wer sich dem Leben stellt Ja einmal kommt der Tag an dem ich’s wag Und dann stell ich mich der Welt!

[@sarahvanlimbergen7057]

This is the Dutch version: Dromen zijn voor dwaze Oké, Dromen zijn voor dwaze deze tijden zijn te hard Gelukkig heb ik dromen zat Ik neem de stap De voordeur uit Loop richting nieuwe start De trein in, naar de grote stad K’zit aan het raam in mijn coupe En teken lijnen En reeksen kleine steden racen mij voor bij Einde van m’n reis De trein uit In het ochtend uur Kijk hoe Parijs haar gast ontvangt Dan zie ik aan een raam affiches: Kamers hier te huur Voor ik het weet heb ik betaald. Ik pak de sleutel neem de trap Ik vindt mijn deur en waag de stap En ik ben thuis Gevult vol zonnenschijn Wat geeft het wie ik was Het gaat om wie ik nu wil zijn Dat is de truc En ik ben niet meer bang Mijn ideale wereld is nu hier Niet voor altijd maar toch voor lang

No es momento para sueños Eso no me detendra Es hora de vivir por mí Cruzar sin miedo el jardín Tomar un tren sin rumbo fijo Ser libre al fin Mis dedos trazan al pasar En las ventanas Aquellos sitios que jamás oí nombrar En París me bajo Puedo ver el Sacre coeur Y se despierta la ciudad Alquilo en el segundo piso dice el cartel de pronto ese es mi hogar La puerta se abre frente a mi Tan solo un paso más Y ya estoy aquí En esta habitación No importa lo que tengo solo importa el corazón No hay vuelta atrás Lo que pasó pasó Y tengo todo lo que quiero aqui Un mundo de mi creación No es momento para sueños Y tal vez sea así La gente ya no tiene fe Y quizás son solo sueños pero me han traído aquí Y por mi eso está bien En mi ventana puedo ver Otras ventanas Es mi museo de retratos personal Y todo claro está No importa lo que fue Importa lo que ya vendrá No hay vuelta atrás Me olvido del temor Pues tengo todo lo que quiero aquí Un mundo de mi creación

OVERVIEW LYRICS LISTEN PEOPLE ALSO SEARCH FOR Lyrics They say times are hard for dreamers But they are not hard for me I've saved up everything I know To take that step beyond the lawn Keep walking till I see the station And then see it go Inside the train, up through the glass My finger tracing All of these towns I've never heard of racing past Off the train in Paris, half a mile from Sacré-Cœur The city's waking up for me! A sign says an apartment's vacant on the second floor! And suddenly I hold a key I turn a lock, the rooms appear And all it takes is one more step And then I'm here! Just me behind my door! It isn't what I have It's only what I have in store That matters now, the past can only fade! And everything I'll ever need is here This is how my world gets made They say times are hard for dreamers And who knows, maybe they are People seem stuck, or lost at sea! And I might be a dreamer But it's gotten me this far And that is far enough for me Look out my window there's a view, of other windows My own museum full of paintings I look through! Where everything is clear! It isn't where I am It's only where I'll go from here That matters now And I am not afraid! As everything I'll ever need appears This is how my world gets made
