The Summer We Crossed Europe In The Rain (The Kazuo Ishiguro / Jim Tomlinson Songbook)
The Summer We Crossed Europe in the Rain
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 those things we did before
The summer we crossed Europe in the rain
Remember that hotel, the crooked balcony door
From where we watched the market in the downpour?
Sharing warm baguettes, on sunny cathedral steps
Dancing the tango while 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 those things we did before
The summer we crossed Europe in the rain
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 those things we did before
The summer we crossed Europe in the rain
Remember that hotel, the crooked balcony door
From where we watched the market in the downpour?
Sharing warm baguettes, on sunny cathedral steps
Dancing the tango while 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 those things we did before
The summer we crossed Europe in the rain
