[Verse 1] You don’t look at me as often as you used to do There’s a burning smell in the air, the dog’s grumpy too No dinner for me, charcoal’s not good for health at all The pan’s burnt up, and smoke fills the house wall to wall. [Chorus] Let’s leave it all and take a walk, just you and me Maybe to the forest where your dancing I can see Graceful and lovely, twirling down the trail And maybe then our luck will finally prevail Let it burn, let it char, it doesn’t really matter When I’m with you, the daily gray won’t make me shatter Walking with you, sharing a laugh, so sweet Picking wild raspberries, a simple treat. [Verse 2] Take my hand, hold me close, don’t let me go Our place looks different now, it’s not the same, you know Three greasy stains remain on the ceiling high above And the ghost of my burnt meal haunts the kitchen I love. [Chorus] Let’s leave it all and take a walk, just you and me Maybe to the forest where your dancing I can see Graceful and lovely, twirling down the trail And maybe then our luck will finally prevail Let it burn, let it char, it doesn’t really matter When I’m with you, the daily gray won’t make me shatter Walking with you, sharing a laugh, so sweet Picking wild blackberries, a simple treat. [Verse 3] Standing here with you, among the raspberry leaves Far from the crowds, far from the smoky heaves When you’re by my side, I feel like someone new The world’s a brighter place, though it’s gray in hue. [Chorus] Let’s leave it all and take a walk, just you and me Maybe to the forest where your dancing I can see Graceful and lovely, twirling down the trail And maybe then our luck will finally prevail Let it burn, let it char, it doesn’t really matter When I’m with you, the daily gray won’t make me shatter Walking with you, sharing a laugh, so sweet Picking wild raspberries, a perfect treat.
