High upon a hill

Looking over the ruins burning still

Where was I for all of this.

Where was I for all of this.



You never looked so bad she said

I didn't know I could do all this she said

I didn't know all this could burn with just a kiss

Burn with just a kiss

I didn't know



You didn't notice Rome was burning

You didn't notice you had the flame still in your hands

Why didn't you notice Rome was burning



As the passion filled your eyes

You couldn't see to find the home you'd left behind

Like all the lovers that live blind

Lovers that live blind

No you couldn't see



You didn't notice Rome was burning

You didn't notice you had the flame still in your hands

Why didn't you notive Rome was burning
