Era uma vez Palermo

I know somewhere there is a party going down.

Interesting people; conversation to be found.

I've lived in cities where there is no solid tune,

made some friends there that I hope I'll never lose.

But, for now, I want to stay in this quiet town.

The neighbors on my block, they've got stories to tell.

"This is the grocery who once was a hotel."

"And Mr. Driscoll he just stands there with his smile,

inviting everyone he sees to come inside."

This is the life I want to live in a quiet town.

Sometimes I miss the shows I loved a long time ago.

Sometimes I miss the shows I loved a long time ago.

Come Sunday morning there's a market on the square.

Children are playing, bells are ringing in the air.

Old men are drinking, it's a lazy afternoon;

Content with thinking that there is nothing to do.

So for now, I'm gonna stay in this quiet town.

In this quiet town.

In this quiet town.
