Rome Is Burning Lyrics

John Wesley Rome Is Burning

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 notice Rome was burning
