Rome
Oh
I know I should open my eyes
but I never look
No, I never think
of a better way of those better things
No, no,
but it might be enough
See we said we'd live much bigger than
the backwood queens, surburban kings,
Oh
Stay, stay
Say what you want, say what you want me to say
Stay, stay
Me I am yours, Rome wasn't built it in a day
See I've thought only of you
and all the grey years we could be living in
All the leaps we've made just to sink or swim
Oh, oh
So come on and open the door
Won't you wet my head and bless my sins
Won't you take me into your arms again
Stay, stay
Say what you want, say what you want me to say
Stay, stay
Me I am yours, Rome wasn't built in a day
Stay, stay
Say what you want, say what you want me to say
Stay, stay
Me I am yours, Rome wasn't built in a day
Well I never trusted all those brighter days
and I swore that it was all that I could take
but I want so much for you to stay
Stay, stay
Say what you want, say what you want me to say
Stay, stay
Me I am yours, Rome wasn't built in a day
Stay, stay
Say what you want, say what you want me to say
Stay, stay
Me I am yours, Rome wasn't built in a day
Stay, stay
Stay, stay
Stay, stay
Stay, stay
