About the Artist
Lyrics
Meandering like the Tiber Hand in hand, we scaled the Spanish Steps The night air thick and sultry I kiss you beneath the Italian moonlight This was my dream There was turbulence in our descent as we flew in I'd hoped to witness beauty there in the ruins Weekend in Rome, I have seen you finally Weekend in Rome Weekend in Rome, oh, I still love you Italy I thought you'd fall for me Oh, you didn't even stumble Took my love to the Colosseum to watch it crumble Weekend in Rome, I have seen you finally Weekend in Rome Weekend in Rome, oh, I still love you Italy The weight of expectation Love buckles like a sandal The upturned fist of a snake gesticulating wildly At my every utterance Words have no meaning My heart was all a-flutter, but now it's just a thud Pork cheek and egg yolks like ashes in my mouth This was my dream Italy
