Running to the Countryside

Lyrics

[Verse]
We packed our bags in a Citroen so old,
Through cobbled streets, stories were told,
With the wind in our hair, we rolled on by,
To where the tall grasses kiss the sky.

[Verse 2]
Passed vineyards where grapes hung low,
Heard the songs of the river's gentle flow,
Fields of lavender painted the view,
Our spirits lifted, hearts born anew.

[Chorus]
Escaping to the countryside, so free,
In a Citroen 2CV, just you and me,
With an accordion's sigh and clarinet's wail,
Life felt profound in this serene tale.

[Verse 3]
The barn owl whispered secrets of night,
Beneath the stars, we bathed in moonlight,
Bread and cheese by the lantern's glow,
Simple moments, love we bestow.

[Verse 4]
Sunrise brought a farmer’s cheerful call,
Rooster crowed near the worn-out stone wall,
Laughter echoed in the crisp morning air,
Worries vanished, replaced by care.

[Chorus]
Escaping to the countryside, so free,
In a Citroen 2CV, just you and me,
With an accordion's sigh and clarinet's wail,
Life felt profound in this serene tale.
