Almost Rome
Well, there he stood
with a gun to his head
American dreams on his mind
Must be a fool to live so long
Try and tell me I haven’t seen
the simple woman child
But we were strangers
and strangers aren’t friends
So let’s forget that for a while
I’d like to drive off in my car for a day
You know, forget things for a while
Cause I don’t wanna be
worried all my life
I just don’t got the time
And when we’re almost home
and when it’s almost Rome
We were chasin’ something
I think it was a dream
They were rabbits, painted paradise
You took my hand and we watched them get away
and then I looked into your eyes
And when we’re almost home
and when it’s almost Rome
