Picture a young girl with her nose pressed against a rain-streaked window, daydreaming so vividly that she can drape Cairo in snow, gift Babylon’s hanging gardens, and toss a thunderstorm into the desert. Melody’s Y'a Pas Que Les Grands Qui Rêvent turns these playful images into a declaration: children feel the full spectrum of wonder and longing, too. Our narrator’s heart flutters for an older boy who teaches her the names of stars and gives her a Brazilian friendship bracelet that promises her wish will come true when it snaps.
The chorus repeats the anthem-like truth that dreams and deep emotions are not reserved for grown-ups. Caught between childhood and adolescence, she yearns for a first real kiss and senses that her innocence is about to wash away "in an ocean" of new feelings. The song celebrates that magical threshold where imagination, hope, and first love collide—reminding every listener that no matter their age, their dreams are valid and powerful.
