Desire...love...mystery...magicJust close your eyes
Imagine you're in a place
Where you can taste all you crave
In life's masqueradeCome hold my hand
And all your wishes come true
Burlesque and blue
The carnival's calling to youYour peace of mind
Will come in time
You'll understand all you'll see
Though it all seems
Like one of your dreams
It's a realityWe're drunk on life
We're drunk on life
Desire, love, mystery and magicDesire...love...mystery...magicJust close your eyes
You'll find yourself in a place
Your heart will race
No time for sorrow or tearsRiding a horse
On a merry-go-round
Colour and sound
Surround you to brighten the yearsJanvier, fevrier, mars, avril, mai
Make way for June and July
August, September, October to wave
Novembre, decembre goodbyeWe're drunk on life
We're drunk on life
Desire, love, mystery and magic
In a carnival of life
In a carnival of life
Desire, love, mystery and magicDesire...love...mystery...magic
Desire...love...mystery...magicEros awake
Our hearts to take
Ready to break every law
I find I'm no longer
Chasing my youth
The truth is that I'm chasing yoursWe're drunk on life
We're drunk on life
Desire, love, mystery and magic
In a carnival of life
In a carnival of life
Desire, love, mystery and magic
And magic...
