Arrivederci, Roma

[Verse]
I wish I could visit the city
The very same one I call home
And see through the guise of a traveler's eyes
When he first is discovering Rome
He looks upon old Trevi Fountain
The strains of Respighi are ringing above
On some little strata, his innamorata
Must surely be waiting for love
He offers up a penny to the fountain
And he knows that he'll be back again someday

[Chorus]
Arrivederci, Roma
Goodbye, goodbye to Rome
City of a million moonlit places
City of a million warm embraces
Where I found the one of all the faces
Far from home
Arrivederci, Roma
It's time for us to part
Save the wedding bells for my returning
Keep my lover's arms outstretched and yearning
Please be sure the flame of love keeps burning
In her heart

[Outro]
Save those wedding bells for my returning
Keep my lover's arms outstretched and yearning
And be sure the flame of love keeps burning
In her heart
