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
You didn't notice Rome was burning You didn't notice you had the flame still in your hands Why didn't you notice Rome was burning
As the passion filled your eyes You couldn't see to find the home you'd left behind Like all the lovers that live blind Lovers that live blind No you couldn't see
You didn't notice Rome was burning You didn't notice you had the flame still in your hands Why didn't you notice Rome was burning
