作词 : Carpenter | |
Tonight the brightest moon in a hundred years | |
Floods the streets of Rome and I am standing here | |
Wondering where the ghosts of antiquity | |
Hide on nights like this once a century | |
Where do shadows fall when there's only light | |
Why'd you follow me halfway 'round the world tonight | |
What I'd give right now not to even care | |
And then this could be someone else's prayer | |
And on a sleepless night by St. Stephen's Green | |
Oh I turned and tossed with my Irish dreams | |
And when the morning shone through the burned off mist | |
I could sense you still just as close as this | |
Just as close as lips brush against a cheek | |
It's your voice I hear and it's your name I speak | |
But when I look around there's no one there | |
How I wish you were someone else's prayer | |
And now the twilight comes as a silent guest | |
And of all its gifts I like stillness best | |
Except for tin roof rains that commence with spring | |
It's a lullaby when that tin roof sings | |
Now you can look for me on the streets of Rome | |
Or in Dublin town but I've gone back home | |
I would always be just a stranger there | |
And now you're free to be someone else's prayer |

Tonight the brightest moon in a hundred years | |
Floods the streets of Rome and I am standing here | |
Wondering where the ghosts of antiquity | |
Hide on nights like this once a century | |
Where do shadows fall when there' s only light | |
Why' d you follow me halfway ' round the world tonight | |
What I' d give right now not to even care | |
And then this could be someone else' s prayer | |
And on a sleepless night by St. Stephen' s Green | |
Oh I turned and tossed with my Irish dreams | |
And when the morning shone through the burned off mist | |
I could sense you still just as close as this | |
Just as close as lips brush against a cheek | |
It' s your voice I hear and it' s your name I speak | |
But when I look around there' s no one there | |
How I wish you were someone else' s prayer | |
And now the twilight comes as a silent guest | |
And of all its gifts I like stillness best | |

It' s a lullaby when that tin roof sings | |
Now you can look for me on the streets of Rome | |
Or in Dublin town but I' ve gone back home | |
I would always be just a stranger there | |
And now you' re free to be someone else' s prayer |
