Come è bella c'è la luna brilla è strette
Strette come è tutta bella a passeggiare
Sotto il cielo di Roma

Down each avenue or via, street or strada
You can see 'em disappearin' two by two
On an evenin' 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 evenin' in Roma

Though there's grinin' and mandolinin' 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 is much too few
On an evenin' in Roma

Don't know what the country's comin' to
But in Rome do as the Romans do
Will you on an evenin' in Roma?

Though there's grinin' and mandolinin' in sunny Italy
The beginning has just begun when the sun goes down

Come è bella c'è la luna brilla è strette
Strette come è tutta bella a passeggiare
Sotto il cielo di Roma

Don't know what the country's comin' to
But in Rome do as the Romans do
Will you on an evenin' in Roma?
Sott'er celo de Roma
On an evenin' in Roma

    Como ebella ce la luna brille estrette 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 grining 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 ebella ce la luna brille estrette 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

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
