The Country Life - Peter Cincotti

Time can fly and days go by

It’s speed we can’t control

It’s been 30 years of city life

And now we’re growing old

There’s nothing more we’re needed for

And there’s nothing left to do

So let’s spend the autumn years ahead of us

Like the summers of our youth

I never knew how much we had back then

But it’s not too late to have it all again

I wanna wake up to the music of hummingbirds and harmony

I wana feel the morning sunlight filling up the room

I wanna listen to the silence that’s singing through the scenery

I wanna smell the roses of our love the day they bloomed

Let’s go back and find

The simple world we knew

'cause I still wanna live again

The country life with you

Country life with you

Taxi cabs and traffic jams

And subways on the ground

Don’t you miss the days when all we hear

The nature’s quiet sounds

I’m tired of just remembering

When their memories left to make

Just you and me in a hundred miles of greenery and lake

Oh take me to that peaceful place I miss

'cause I can’t spend another day like this

I wanna wake up to the music of hummingbirds and harmony

I wana feel the morning sunlight filling up the room

I wanna listen to the silence that’s singing through the scenery

I wanna smell the roses of our love the day they bloomed

Let’s go back and find

The simple world we knew

'cause I still wanna live again

The country life with you

Don’t it let be another thing

You always meant to do

Just let me live again

The country life with you

Country life with you
