If You Go To Rome
lyrics by Ken Wilson
If you go to Rome
You'll see the Coliseum,
If you go to London
Maybe you'll see the Queen.
If you stay with me
You won't see anything,
But you'll be very happy,
That's for sure !
If you climb that mountain,
You'll be above the noisy crowds,
If you catch a jet plane,
You'll see above the clouds.
If you stay with me
You won't see anything,
But you'll be very happy,
That's for sure !
If you leave me now,
I'll be sad and lonely,
If you walk away,
I'll search around for you.
If it takes a year,
I'll find you, my darling,
And you'll be very happy,
That's for sure !
If you make some money,
Will you come and live with me ?
If I make some money,
Will you change your mind?
If I ask you nicely,
Will you make a cup of tea ?
Then I'll be very happy,
That's for sure !
If you leave me now,
I'll be sad and lonely,
If you walk away,
I'll search around for you.
If it takes a year,
I'll find you, my darling,
And you'll be very happy,
That's for sure !
b) What will you probably see if you go to
