Well, there's no verse to this song 'Cause I don't want to wait a moment too long To say that I'd love to get you on a slow boat to China All myself alone To get you to keep you in my arms evermore Leave all your lovers weeping on the far-away shore Well out on the briny with a moon big and shiny Melting your heart of stone Well, I'd love to get you on a slow boat to China All to myself alone Well, I'd love to get you on a slow boat to China All to myself alone On a real slow boat On a slow slow boat to China On An Evening In Roma (Sott'er Celo De Roma) Como e` bella ce` la luna brille e` strette Strette como e` tutta bella a passeggiare Sotto il cielo di Roma Down each avenue or via, street or strata You can see 'em disappearing two by two On an evening in Roma Do they take 'em for espresso? Yeah, I guess so On each lover's arm a girl I wish I knew On an evening in Roma Though there's grinning and mandolining in sunny Italy The beginning has just begun when the sun goes down So, please, meet me in the plaza near your casa I am only one and that's one too few On an evening in Roma Don't know what the country's coming to But in Rome do as the Romans do Will you on an evening in Roma? Como e` bella ce` la luna brille e` strette Strette como e` tutta bella a passeggiare Sotto il cielo di Roma Don't know what the country's coming to But in Rome do as the Romans do Will you on an evening in Roma? Sott'er celo de Roma On an evening in Roma
