Rêve de Starlett

A little girl who dreams
Who dreams
Of old silent films
Of a budding romance
Who is born
At a funfair
A starlet's dream
In illustrated form

A man has arrived
A real man
More real
Than the Valentino of silent movies
Than in dreams
She covered with kisses
A starlet's dream
Undressed

In this melodramatic scenario
Melodramatic
The end has turned
The train has derailed
The beauty
Is left alone to cry
A starlet's dream
Disintegrated

She deserted the cinema
Local
Valentino is dead
Her heart capsized
So she fired
A pistol shot
A starlet's dream
All in smoke
