"Originally a collaboration with artistic raconteur Conrad Beauj’lais, this song was composed for consideration in the 2008 Eurovision Song Contest in Helsinki. The song was ultimately rejected under strict competition rules limiting the number of key changes in a song.
Nearly ten years on I have updated the lyrics for the album to reflect the changing political landscape in Europe and my deep needs to provoke messages and reactions through my music. The spirit of all togetherness is ever present in this song. Moments is a heart-throbbing pop sensation, a dream, for me and for you."
SVEN, Singer and SuperStar.
lyrics
A Song of Little Moments
(Music: Willetts / Lyric: Searle)
I woke from a dream, with a song in my heart,
A sweet melody, that I knew from the start.
Would sing to the world, like the sweetest love story,
This is my song, this is my morning glory.
I’ll open up wide, share my moment with you,
If I dared to dream, maybe you can dream too.
Of a sweet lullaby, to lighten your day,
Join the rest of the world, being happy and gay.
They’ll be woken in Moscow, to the sweet melody,
Guten morgen. Hi. To all Germany,
Do the Polka in Polska, yeah they’re feeling the beat,
The people of Paris, will sing in the street,
They’ll holler in Holland, we’ll give it in Greece,
It’s charting in Czech and maybe in Niece,
It’s a song that we’re singing, across the E-U,
A musical dream, for me and for you.
These are the moments,
That make up our world,
We share them together,
Every boy, every girl, every girl.
So rollover Maldova, keep a musical ear,
And tune in Tunisia, you’ve nothing to fear,
Freak out in Finland, from start to the Finnish
And dance it Denmark, don’t let it diminish,
We’re rousing Romania, and waking up Wales,
Cause Brexit in Britain is a sad sorry tale,
It’s a song that we’re singing, across the E-U,
A musical dream, for me and for you.
They’ll be woken in Moscow, to the sweet melody,
Guten morgen. Hi. To all Germany,
Do the Polka in Polska, yeah they’re feeling the beat,
The people of Paris, will sing in the street,
They’ll holler in Holland, we’ll give it in Greece,
It’s charting in Czech and maybe in Niece,
It’s a song that we’re singing, across the E-U,
A musical dream, for me and for you.
