Postcard from Rome
She's in a window seat sitting alone
Her suitcase is spilling out untaken photos
Of European architecture, an apartment on the coast
She's on an airplane heading to Rome
She's on an airplane sitting alone
So baby be safe, baby be smart
The world's not so pretty a place after dark
Honey I'd hold you so tight in my arms
But you're oceans away, and I'm home working hard
So baby be safe, baby be smart
Take pictures of people and pictures of trees
Try every corner coffee shop on every busy street
Be the modern Napoleon take all of Italy
But every so often think a little of me
I'm probably wide awake worried bout you out on the street
So baby go free, and baby have fun
The world is a beautiful place when you're young
I'll be here waiting when your wandering'
Her suitcase is spilling out untaken photos
Of European architecture, an apartment on the coast
She's on an airplane heading to Rome
She's on an airplane sitting alone
So baby be safe, baby be smart
The world's not so pretty a place after dark
Honey I'd hold you so tight in my arms
But you're oceans away, and I'm home working hard
So baby be safe, baby be smart
Take pictures of people and pictures of trees
Try every corner coffee shop on every busy street
Be the modern Napoleon take all of Italy
But every so often think a little of me
I'm probably wide awake worried bout you out on the street
So baby go free, and baby have fun
The world is a beautiful place when you're young
I'll be here waiting when your wandering'
