[00:01.02]Lights of Taormina - Mark Knopfler
[01:06.05]There's laughter in the darkness
[01:08.19]
[01:09.10]Music floating in across the bay
[01:12.18]
[01:15.30]He's half listening and wondering
[01:17.90]
[01:18.52]How he could have let her slip away
[01:22.00]
[01:25.23]So long ago but still he wants to know
[01:28.51]
[01:29.24]If anyone has seen her
[01:31.22]
[01:34.59]And he's sitting out in the night
[01:37.10]Looking down upon the lights of Taormina
[01:40.62]
[01:44.02]They were young and love was shining
[01:46.48]
[01:47.47]Like the colours of the rainbow
[01:51.19]
[01:53.69]Desire felt like choking
[01:55.68]Love was smoking under the volcano
[01:59.72]
[02:03.02]He can still taste her kisses
[02:05.26]
[02:06.09]Sweet as the red wine from Messina
[02:09.46]
[02:11.55]Now he's sitting out in the night
[02:15.07]Looking down upon the lights of Taormina
[02:18.50]
[02:22.57]Seems like another lifetime
[02:24.55]When they rambled along the shore
[02:26.44]
[02:27.29]Seems like another lifetime
[02:29.22]She used to call him her sweet senor
[02:32.12]Maybe in another lifetime
[02:33.98]On a pathway to the sea
[02:36.19]
[02:37.14]Maybe there they'll be
[02:39.60]
[02:42.90]The crowd calls for the emperor
[02:45.84]Raise their hands to hail another king
[02:49.06]
[02:52.62]But he's been so long a wanderer
[02:55.22]Another crowd can never mean a thing
[02:59.12]
[03:02.30]He came he saw he conquered
[03:04.66]Ten thousand voices roared in the arena
[03:08.17]
[03:10.87]Now he's sitting out in the night
[03:14.02]Looking down upon the lights of Taormina
[03:17.17]
[03:58.94]He hears the chimes of history
[04:01.55]Myths of gods and men forever ringing
[04:04.57]
[04:07.81]Ancient dreams in all their mystery
[04:10.59]Wars for Sicily and Spartan women
[04:13.93]
[04:17.35]In the mists of antiquity
[04:19.54]
[04:20.09]Ships of war set sail from Carthagina
[04:23.90]
[04:26.10]Now he's sitting out in the night
[04:29.30]Looking down upon the lights of Taormina
[04:32.91]
[04:36.49]Sitting out in the night
[04:38.57]Looking down upon the lights of Taormina
[04:42.42]
