Rome

Leaning on the glass
Waiting for a gin
You didn't see me walking in
No, but I saw you there
Laughing in her way
Killing hopes built in my brain

There might be a chance of things being just friendly
But who am I kidding? Doubt your bed is empty
Those generous green eyes compete with the lights
And it's time to look away now

The night carried on
But with no approach
Out of fear of getting lost (getting lost in you)
On the crowd that grew
Still I should've known
All the roads led straight to you

It turns out we shared a friend who called you over
And started the game with a nice introduction
Yet I wouldn't play with a full board already in motion

Maybe I can't act (yet)
But leave me to plan
And wait out the storm at hand
There's no guarantee, of success
No need
Cause I can stand more than you'd think

Though it seemed like you had a strong and great alliance
If Rome fell apart then why can't your ally?
I'm sure time will take care of old wounds and leave them behind

Months went by when I saw our friend at a party
He said loud and clear that Rome had finally fallen
Nothing else be said let's pick up all the ashes again

It will take more than one day to build what has fallen
But do as I do while we're here and I promise
I'll cross all those rivers until I am drowning

Oh and there your were
Leaning on the glass
When you saw me walking in
Later on you'll think: "Must be fate"
Oh please
It's your turn to play with me
