_acropolis_

right now as i'm doing overtime
i know that you were mine
in the acropolis

right now as i'm working overtime
i know that you were mine in the acropolis

and i know that i stole all the gold from your soul
and i know you stole mine. . .

i know that you were mine in the acropolis
you know it's true any denizen could tell you that
so strong like a willow you were most genteel
strung hard and high like a willy-nilly catherine wheel

and i know that i stole all the gold from your soul
and i know you stole mine

empire down and fell to bits we wasted it
no castles fair we never cared we never
dared

no tenderness

empire down we always fall they never taught us how to come back down to land that we might stand
we never dared

never cared for tenderness

(interlude)

right now as i'm healing over time
i know that you were mine in the acropolis

yeah
i know that i stole all the gold from your soul
and i know you stole
mine

mine...
i know you stole my soul

and you saw--
mine
