         G 
There's laughter in the darkness 
 C                            G 
Music floating in across the bay 
           G 
He's half listening and wondering 
 Em                              D 
How he could have let her slip away 
    C 
So long ago but still he wants to know 
               G        C/G 
If anyone has seen her 
          G 
And he's sitting out in the night 
         C             D             G    D 
Looking down upon the lights of Taormina 


           G                          C 
They were young and love was shining 
                         G 
Like the colours of the rainbow 
   G 
Desire felt like choking 
           Em                  D/A 
Love was smoking under the volcano 
         C 
He can still taste her kisses 
                               G    C/G 
Sweet as the red wine from Messina 
          G 
Now he's sitting out in the night 
         C             D             G 
Looking down upon the lights of Taormina 


C 

Seems like another lifetime 
                                   G 
When they rambled along the shore 

Seems like another lifetime 
                                      C 
She used to call him her sweet senor 

Maybe in another lifetime 
                         G 
On a pathway to the sea 
                        D 
Maybe there they'll be 


           G 
The crowd calls for the emperor 
        C                          G 
Raise their hands to hail another king 
          G 
But he's been so long a wanderer 
  Em                             D 
Another crowd can never mean a thing 
    C 
He came, he saw, he conquered 
                                    G    C/G 
Ten thousand voices roared in the arena 
          G 
Now he's sitting out in the night 
         C             D             G 
Looking down upon the lights of Taormina

               G 
He hears the chimes of history 
 C                             G 
Myths of gods and men forever ringing 
          G 
Ancient dreams in all their mystery 
 Em                          D 
Wars for Sicily and Spartan women 
        C 
In the mists of antiquity 
                                  G    C 
Ships of war set sail from Carthagina 
          G 
Now he's sitting out in the night 
         C             D             G    C 
Looking down upon the lights of Taormina 
 G 
Sitting out in the night 
         C             D             G 
Looking down upon the lights of Taormina
