NIGHT IN ROME song lyrics/Words by Joel Sattler
Music by Char Lee
There was once a night in Rome
that I still remember well
She had found a life in crime
And I, a private hell
She left a trace of her perfume
In a musty old hotel
Just a trace of her perfume…..
Lost in a memory
Eaten by envy
Sharp and hard as the edge of a knife
I know it was wrong
But I needed so long
And now I can never make things right
Forever wanting
Forever taunting
That night she walked right out of my life
I was born to be a gambling man
Raised up on the dice
So it wasn’t up to me
To argue on the price
When I gave her all that I had
She took all that I owned
Left with just the skin on my bones
Just the skin on my bones….
Lost in a memory
Eaten up by envy
Sharp and hard as the edge of a knife
I know it was wrong
But I needed so long
and now I can never make things right
Forever wanting
I can still hear her taunting
That night she walked right out of my life
There was once a night in Rome
that I still remember well
She had found a life in crime
And I, a private hell
She left a trace of her perfume
In a musty old hotel
Just a trace of her perfume…..
