Oh Great City of the Veil
Statues that hide the face
That never leaves a trace
For history wrong to tell
From the foundation I have run
And climbed the highest walls
Just to uncover that sweetest love
Of the one who lives inside me
Oh, Oh, Rome
This love will shine on
Oh, Rome
This love will shine on
Oh great woman of the veil
Temptations that hide the face
That never took the bait
That never ever fell
Never believed there were two
Where there's only ever been one
Shines as brightly in the night
As she does in the blazin' sun
Traffic jam!
I can't believe we got stuck here again
Outside St. John's
We gotta move on
To the temple not made with hands
Where you're never late
But just in time
For the real Love that lives inside
Statues that hide the face
That never leaves a trace
For history wrong to tell
From the foundation I have run
And climbed the highest walls
Just to uncover that sweetest love
Of the one who lives inside me
Oh, Oh, Rome
This love will shine on
Oh, Rome
This love will shine on
Oh great woman of the veil
Temptations that hide the face
That never took the bait
That never ever fell
Never believed there were two
Where there's only ever been one
Shines as brightly in the night
As she does in the blazin' sun
Traffic jam!
I can't believe we got stuck here again
Outside St. John's
We gotta move on
To the temple not made with hands
Where you're never late
But just in time
For the real Love that lives inside
