On The Aventine Lyrics

On The Aventine lyrics

Cheap champagne instead of rain

A saffron dream come what will

The birds that sing in the middle of the night

While the roses bloom on the hill



Peace within and the traffic's outside

The market's closed

The day we sing in the middle of the night

While the roses bloom



A lightning storm to keep you warm

Yellow light standing still

The birds that sing in the middle of the night

While the roses bloom on the hill



Peace within and the traffic's outside

The markets are closed

The day we sing in the middle of the night

While the roses bloom



On the Aventine

On the Aventine Hill
