I Went to Heaven
Journey to Elysium: Carla Bruni's Musical Tapestry Unveiled
Lyrics
I went to Heaven
I experienced a heavenly state
'Twas a small town
It was a small town
Lit with a ruby
It was illuminated with a ruby-colored light
Lathed them with down
The surroundings were adorned or covered with soft materials
Stiller than the fields
Quieter than the fields
At the full dew
During the full dew, emphasizing tranquility
Beautiful as pictures
As beautiful as pictures that no man could draw
No man drew
Emphasizing the extraordinary beauty beyond human ability to capture
No man drew
Reiteration of the unmatched beauty
People like the moth
People resembled moths with delicate frames
Of melchin frames
Reference to delicate and fine frames
Duties of gossamer
Tasks or obligations of delicate and light materials
And eider names
And soft names like eiderdown
Almost contented
Almost satisfied or pleased
I could be
I could be content in this heavenly place
'Mong such a unique
Among such a unique society
Society, society
Reiteration of the idea of a distinct and special community
'Twas a small town
Repetition of the description of the small town
Lathed them with down
Reiteration of the surroundings covered with soft materials
