I was feeling lost and empty
Feeling adrift from the world
Seeing only darkness
When I closed my eyes
Not daring to dream
Of a better time
My heart was heavy
As I travelled to RomeHoping to escape my sorrow
Always wishing for tomorrow
But then I heard you sing
Listen to my voice
On hearing such beauty
I opened my heart
Till there were tears in my eyes
Listening to the voice inside me
That I’d shut away
The voice of my Father
Then as the rains came down in Rome
Cleansing my spirit and my soul
Your sweet voice still in my ear
Bringing me peace and joy
Feeling young again
At the sight of your smile
Life no longer a trial
There on my knees confessing all
I found peace and strength
My own performance at the Colosseum
Finding faith in myself
For I found my heart
In the rains of Rome
