What If We Went To Italy - Mary Chapin Carpenter[00:00:01]
What if we went to Italy[00:00:11]
A suitcase of books and one bag a piece for the summer[00:00:17]
I don't speak a word of Italian[00:00:25]
Except for Campari and soda for two how much is a Lire[00:00:33]
Yes a villa will do and a breeze in Tuscany please[00:00:41]
What if we spent all of our days [00:00:56]
Improving our minds learning new ways to be lazy[00:01:01]
It wouldn't be too much of a strain[00:01:09]
Relax after breakfast till lunch comes around[00:01:17]
Can't wait for dinner oh I need to lie down[00:01:23]
And refuel out by the pool[00:01:29]
What if the ancients were lazy like us[00:01:40]
Too blissed out to paint to sketch or to sculpt[00:01:45]
Just as relaxed as the tower of Pisa[00:01:51]
Not ever missing that old Mona Lisa[00:01:57]
What if we never got back on the plane[00:02:02]
As summer turned colder and then warmer again[00:02:07]
Losing all track of the passing of years[00:02:13]
Till it no longer mattered how long we'd been here[00:02:18]
What if we went to Italy[00:02:49]
Maybe next year just you and me for the summer[00:02:55]
I still can't speak any Italian[00:03:03]
But words are replaced under Siennese skies[00:03:11]
By nothing so much as a nod and a sigh [00:03:16]
And a wish to be always like this[00:03:23]
