Lyrics, Music and Video
The text deals about a perfect love dreamt by the narrator. In the song, Patricia Kaas sings "the refuge of the dreamlike and the gap with the reality. The verses depict the tragic of the dissatisfied daily life, the refrain brings the desired love and declines it with tenderness, romance and cliches." However, this dream is eventually cruel because it does not materialize.
There are two studio versions of the song : the first is the album version, the more acoustic, and the second is the single version, which is used in the music video. It was shot on a beach in Miami, Florida, and shows Kaas clasping a man portraying her boyfriend on the beach, while some men are watching them quietly in the background.

Famous quotes containing the words music and/or video:
“The manner in which Americans “consume” music has a lot to do with leaving it on their coffee tables, or using it as wallpaper for their lifestyles, like the score of a movie—it’s consumed that way without any regard for how and why it’s made.”
—Frank Zappa (1940–1994)
“These people figured video was the Lord’s preferred means of communicating, the screen itself a kind of perpetually burning bush. “He’s in the de-tails,” Sublett had said once. “You gotta watch for Him close.””
—William Gibson (b. 1948)
