The Summer We Crossed Europe In The Rain - Stacey Kent

You say it's the way

These passing years have treated you

That the weight of the dreams you once carried

Has now defeated you

That our candlelit dinners will all just be reheated through

Our quarrels and disappointments

Just get repeated too

Well i've packed our bags

I know i should have consulted you

But pretending to bargain

Would have only insulted you

So do just as i say we'll go away today

The fire still burns whatever you may claim

Let's be young again if only for the weekend

Let's be fools again let's fall in at the deep end

Let's do once more

All the things we did before

The summer we crossed europe in the rain

Remember that hotel the crooked balcony door

From where we stood and watched the market in the downpour

Sharing warm baguettes on sunny cathedral steps

Dancing the tango waiting for our train

Let's be young again if only for the weekend

Let's be fools again let's fall in at the deep end

Let's do once more all the things we did before

The summer we crossed europe in the rain

Let's be young again if only for the weekend

Let's be fools again let's fall in at the deep end

Let's do once more all the things we did before

The summer we crossed europe in the rain
