I was looking for a woman to be good to me
I was with the other people and they had to eat
I couldn't go alone, I didn't know my way
Don't know the language, so I had to stay

Woke up in the morning with a job to do
Twenty seconds later got stuck in the queue
When in Rome they're digging to extend the lines
They're running into ruins, gotta stop all the time

Went upon a hill to get a view of the town
Didn't really happen 'cause the clouds were down
Brought a CD player to be checking our song
Didn't do recordables we moved along

To an elevated garden overlooking the street
She was standing with a spinet at the side of her feet
Shouted to her promising to make her a star
She didn't have the time and she left in a car

Prego amore vieni con me

Waiting for a DJ but he never turned up
Figured that he didn't 'cause he knew he would suck
I was sitting in the rhythm backing the beat
Couldn't see her dancing back on the street

Just because you got the magic happening then
Doesn't make it certain it'll happen again
Just because you know someone is looking for you
Doesn't have a say in who they're running into
