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

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

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

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

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
