Do you remember the taste of my lips that night
I stole a bit of my mother's perfume
Cause I remember when my father put his fist in the wall and separated the dining room
I remember the fear in your eyes
The very first time we snuck into the city
Late December with my heart in my chest and the clouds in my breath
Didn't know where I was running to
But I won't look back
Cause we'll be looking for sunlight
Or the headlights
Till our wide eyes burn blind
We'll be listening to the same tunes
That we're going through
To the bottom of the line
And we know that we're headstrong
And our heart's gone
And the timing's never right
But for now let's get away
On a Roman holiday
Could you imagine the taste of your lips if we never tried to kiss on the drive to Queen's?
Cause I imagine the weight of your ribs if you lied between my hips in the backseat.
I imagine the tears in your eyes the very first night I'll sleep without you.
And when it happens, I'll be miles away and a few months late,
Didn't know where I was running to.
But I won't look back...
Cause we'll be looking for sunlight
Or the headlights
Till our wide eyes burn blind
We'll be listening to the same tunes
That we're going through
To the bottom of the line
And we know that we're headstrong
And our heart's gone
And the timing's never right
So for now let's get away
On a Roman holiday
On a Roman holiday
Feet first, don't fall
We'll be running again
Keep close, stand tall
Cause we'll be looking for sunlight
Or the headlights
Till our wide eyes burn blind
We'll be listening to the same tunes
That we're going through
To the bottom of the line
And we know that we're headstrong
And our heart's gone
And the timing's never right
But for now let's get away
On a Roman holiday
On a Roman holiday
On a Roman holiday
