Intro: In a little while you're leavin' Starting on the journey home Soon I'll be alone, the one who loves you La la la la la, somewhere in the heart of Rome I'll make a wish in every fountain Say a prayer that you'll return Minutes I'll be counting May the fire of love still burn I'll keep your picture by my pillow And pretend I'm not alone Make believe that you are with me La la la la la, in the heart of Rome Suddenly the tears are falling As we hear the whistle blow Hold me very close before you leave me La la la la la, somewhere in the heart of Rome I'll make a wish in every fountain Say a prayer that you'll return Minutes I'll be counting May the fire of love still burn I'll keep your picture by my pillow And pretend I'm not alone Make believe that you are with me La la la la la, in the heart of Rome (2x)
