"Rome Is Burning" Lyrics

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

And you didn't notice Rome was burning
And you didn't notice you had the flame still in your hands
Why didn't you know that Rome was burning?

And as the passion filled your eyes
You couldn't see to find the home you'd left behind
Like all the other lovers that live blind
Lovers that live blind
No, no you couldn't see

And you didn't notice Rome was burning
And You didn't notice that you had the flame still in your hands
And didn't you know that Rome was burning?
And You didn't notice that you had the flame still in your hands
And didn't you know that Rome was burning?
Oh, cause you didn't notice that you had the flame still in your hands
Why didn't you know that Rome was burning?
