The National — Roman Holiday

[Verse 1: Matt Berninger]
I’m your hospital, I’m your silver cross
Tell me what to be, tell me how to talk
Patti wasn’t lonely, Robert wasn’t lost
Put me on a rope, take me for a walk

[Chorus: Matt Berninger and Gail Ann Dorsey]
Roman holiday
Every time it rains
Roman holiday
I’ll take away your shame

[Verse 2: Matt Berninger]
I’m not afraid to tell you what I want
I’m not afraid of anything, I want it all
Never leave me out here for too long
Put me in your movie, pin me to your wall

[Chorus: Matt Berninger and Gail Ann Dorsey]
Roman holiday
Every time it rains
Roman holiday
We’re all Rainey anyway

[Bridge: Matt Berninger and Gail Ann Dorsey]
She said, «Please, think the best of him
Please, think the best of me
There are police in the museum

[Chorus: Matt Berninger and Gail Ann Dorsey]
Roman holiday
Every time it rains
Roman holiday
We don’t feel the pain

[Bridge: Matt Berninger and Gail Ann Dorsey]
She said, «Please, think the best of him»
Please, think the best of me

[Outro: Matt Berninger]
There are police in the museum
She said please
