#2 On Rossio

On Rossio

A tribute to the wonderful city that is Lisbon.

VERSE

Take shelter in a box near the place that feels like home
There is a church on the square that one time was down by the river
Waving your list of hopes for a future that won’t come
Slip along the cracking tiles, you know that you will always forgive her

Hey, send your words to me
On how it used to be
On Rossio
I really need to know
Before I go
How we should be

CHORUS

From out of town
Been lost and found
Dive through waves
and never ever drown
Can't settle down
Keep spinning 'round
Till sunrise

VERSE

Will tomorrow bring a different melody to this place
For the people staring at the sun or lining up for some cherries
At night the king up in the air has a different face
When the column‘s making plans to get rid of the old statue it carries
