Feet are tired cobble stone
The city floats into the window
Sun is high stucco lit up
Blue skies settle me as my mind goes
Off through the allies
Packed tight with bodies
Shuffling to an eternal song
Bright eyes look
Up in wonder
As a new memory is born
It's funny how all things change
And still forever stay the same
It's ancient to a fault and it's bursting with an honest pride
It fills up my heart, it's the city that changed my life
I'd visit anytime but I'll never go alone
I'll always have a friend in Rome
Always have a friend
Always have a friend
Young and naive no chaperone
Like I was living in a movie
Spent a summer like it was my last
And it sort of changed everything
What was I missing
Why wasn't I living
My soul seemed to long for more
I didn't know
How far I could go
Or what I could ask for
I was lost but I was so alive
And I've never really said goodbye
It's ancient to a fault and it's bursting with an honest pride
It fills up my heart, it's the city that changed my life
I'd visit anytime but I'll never go alone
I'll always have a friend in Rome
Always have a friend
Always have a friend
When you walk under la luna
Through the heart of Roma
It's like love on an endless night
The city draws you in
With a magic you can't deny
And stays until the day
That you die
It's ancient to a fault and it's bursting with an honest pride
It fills up my heart, it's the city that changed my life
I'd visit anytime but I don't think I'd go alone
Yea I'll always have a friend in Rome
