Lyrics:
[Verse 1] There’s laughter in the darkness Music floating in across the bay He’s half listening and wondering How he could have let her slip away So long ago but still he wants to know If anyone has seen her And he’s sitting out in the night Looking down upon the lights of Taormina [Verse 2] They were young and love was shining Like the colours of the rainbow Desire felt like choking Love was smoking under the volcano He can still taste her kisses Sweet as the red wine from Messina Now he’s sitting out in the night Looking down upon the lights of Taormina [Verse 3] Seems like another lifetime When they rambled along the shore Seems like another lifetime She used to call him her sweet senor Maybe in another lifetime On a pathway to the sea Maybe there they’ll be [Verse 4] The crowd calls for the emperor Raise their hands to hail another king But he’s been so long a wanderer Another crowd can never mean a thing He came, he saw, he conquered Ten thousand voices roared in the arena Now he’s sitting out in the night Looking down upon the lights of Taormina [Verse 5] He hears the chimes of history Myths of gods and men forever ringing Ancient dreams in all their mystery Wars for Sicily and Spartan women In the mists of antiquity Ships of war set sail from Carthagina Now he’s sitting out in the night Looking down upon the lights of Taormina Sitting out in the night Looking down upon the lights of Taormina
