"Roman Holiday" lyrics
"Roman Holiday"
If I can hide out here for the summer
If I can hold out here for that long
Will it be time for the people
To forget my face and let me take
A Roman holiday
I'm small but I'm strong
Strong but quiet
If something comes along
Well, I just might try it
So what is was the wrong girl
But the time was right
And it's all too easy
To talk about
What's night in hindsight
No coat and
We had no chaperone
We were left alone
If I can hide out here for the summer
If I can hold out here for that long
Will it be time for the people
To forget my face and let me take
A Roman holiday
I like girls and girls like me
You know some men pay thousands of dollars
For what I get for free
Now you stand there
And you paint the bone
You know you wouldn't pay attention
If I was some complete unknown
No choice
I had no alibi
Just had the chance to fly
If I can hide out here for the summer
If I can hold out here for that long
Will it be time for the people
To forget my face and let me take
A Roman holiday
First chance I ran away
And I'm never ever gonna go back
The American dream looks faded
When you're staring from the bottom of a
Cul-de-sac
If I can hide out here for the summer
If I can hold out here for that long
Will it be time for the people
To forget my face and let me take
A Roman holiday

Crowded House - "Now We're Getting Somewhere" It never used to be that bad

With all the boys in town
Now I want a man around
Get me out of here

To all the boys in town

Get me out of here

And it's like talking to a stranger
Remember the panic in its delectable face, when I touched it
It was like talking to a stranger
