There's laughter in the dark.
_ [Eb] Music floating across [Bb] the bay _ _ _ _ _ He's half a-listening and wondering
_ [Gm] How he could have let her [F] slip away So _ _ _
_ [Eb] long ago, but still he wants to know _
If anyone [Bb] has seen her _ [Eb] _ _ _
[Bb] And he's sitting out in the night
Looking [Eb] down [F] upon the lights [Bb] of Taormina _ _ [F] _ They [Bb] _ were young and love was shining
[Eb] _ Like the colors of the [Bb] rainbow _ Desire _ _ _ felt like choking, love [Gm] was smoking
Under [F] the volcano He _ _ _ [Eb] can still taste her kissing
_ Sweet as the red wine [Bb] from the sea _ _ [Eb] _ _
Now [Bb] he's sitting out in the night
[Eb] Looking down upon [F] the lights [Bb] of Taormina _ _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] Seemed like another lifetime
When they rambled along the shore [Bb] Seemed like another lifetime
He used to call her the sweet _ [Eb] Senorita Maybe in another lifetime
On a pathway to the sea [Bb] _ Maybe there [F] they'll be
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] The crowd calls for the Emperor [Gm] Raise their hands to hail another [Bb] king
_ _ _ _ _ But he's been so long a wanderer [Gm] Another crowd can never [F] meet him
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] He came, he saw, he conquered Ten thousand voices roared [Bb] in the arena
_ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] Now he's sitting out in the night [Eb] Looking down upon [F] the lights of [Bb]

Hears the chimes of [Eb] history Myths of gods and men [Bb] forever in
_ _ _ _ _ Ancient dreams and all their [Gm] mystery Wars for Sicily and [F]
Spartan women
In _ _ _ _ [Eb]
the midst of antiquity Ships of war set sail [Bb] from Cartagena
