Text
[Intro – spoken, whisper]
Warm wind from the sea…
the city still awake…
twenty-nine degrees in the shade…
and you.
[Verse 1 – spoken / melodic]
The sun is slowly drowning in the hotel glass
White harbor lights are counting every sip
On your skin, the shadow and the scent of day
The summer night is breathing… just like me
Time stands still, the watch has fallen asleep
The night has a taste no one else can keep.
[Chorus – soft, melodic]
Riviera blue, no words to say
Shadows dancing till the break of day
Warm night glow and golden fire
Your name, a whisper, a late-night bar
Twenty-nine, inside our dreams
In the shade of hearts, in the shade of schemes
Stay right here, just one more while
Before the summer fades in style.
[Verse 2 – spoken, deep voice]
We drink the silence, wine grows cold
The city watches, but never told
Your eyes, a film shot in the dark
No beginning, no final mark
White walls echo every step
Love here never makes a bet.
[Pre-Chorus – half-sung]
Don’t ask tomorrow, don’t count time
This night moves to its own design…
[Chorus – full]
Riviera blue, no words to say
Shadows dancing till the break of day
Warm night glow and golden fire
Your name, a whisper, a late-night bar
Twenty-nine, inside our dreams
In the shade of hearts, in the shade of schemes
Stay right here, just one more while
Before the summer fades in style.
[Verse 3 – poetic]
Morning comes a little too bold
Steals us like a sudden cold
Names remain upon the sand
Never read by any hand
If you leave, I’ll always know
This summer lives in every slow.
[Bridge – instrumental + whispers]
(soft saxophone solo)
Mon amour…
Encore…
Encore…
[Final Chorus – nostalgic]
Riviera blue, the final trace
Of burning nights and lost embrace
When only shadows still remain
And the memory: twenty-nine
Stay in us, stay in our minds
Just one more time… one more time…
[Outro – spoken]
The sea goes quiet…
the lights go down…
the night remains…
c’est la vie.
Warm wind from the sea…
the city still awake…
twenty-nine degrees in the shade…
and you.
[Verse 1 – spoken / melodic]
The sun is slowly drowning in the hotel glass

Warm night glow and golden fire
Your name, a whisper, a late-night bar

In the shade of hearts, in the shade of schemes
Stay right here, just one more while
Before the summer fades in style.
