Pompeii (2006 Digital Remaster) - Peter Hammill[00:00:01]

The golden dream the seat of all decorum [00:00:29]

A satellite to match the light of Rome:[00:00:38]

Its silver children chatter in the Forum [00:00:47]

The bath-house and the brothels and their homes[00:00:56]

About the latest fashions for their clothes [00:01:05]

Across the Tyrrhenian Sea comes drifting[00:01:13]

A song that none of them have ever known [00:01:22]

The golden dream that holds back all the hours[00:01:36]

For the ladies in their Dionysian rites [00:01:45]

Blonde heads all garlanded with flowers:[00:01:54]

Wine and love and laughter through the night[00:02:03]

In constant masque and pageant constant flight [00:02:12]

The ground below them whispers in a murmur[00:02:20]

Of passion which is hotter yet than white [00:02:29]

The golden dream the city of all cities [00:02:52]

Its towers piercing into the azure sky [00:03:00]

Whose hand is dealt regarless of all pity:[00:03:09]

Condemned to martyrdom but not to die [00:03:18]

Two lovers look up from their hidden bower [00:03:27]

The wine has stood too long and it turns sour [00:03:36]

I see the tall and bending of your streets[00:03:45]

But now they echo only leather tourist feet[00:03:49]

And waking ashen grey-blue blinding death[00:03:54]

Your sudden winding-sheet[00:03:59]
