The Way We Were Before

I know a place in Italy
It’s by the sea
Where we can make it all brand new
I know a place for you and me
We can be free
We’ll make those things we said come true
With marigolds, and lemon trees; with birds that sing
You’ve never seen the sky so blue

From Florence
We’ll drive to our getaway
Sitting on a shore
We’ll feel so alive
We’ll fall in love
Just like the way we were before

I know a place where we can go
Let’s take a flight
We can pretend we’re bride and groom
And Vladimir
Will play his piano
Into the night
We’ll hear the songs come in our room
We’ll have Bellinis
And Canalettos
And smell the pines
Let’s go when the orange blossoms bloom

From Florence
We’ll drive, to our getaway
Sitting on the shore
We’ll feel so alive
We’ll fall in love
Just like the way we were before
We’ll fall in love
Just like the way we were before
