I am thinking of the woman in a century of peace On a bright mosaic, she is washing on her knees And she looks up at the black sky, beyond the mountain tall She says, "Oh good, the rain is finally going to fall." Today, this was Pompeii And everyone has memories from the night that melted stone The neighbor's nightgown, the screaming on the phone And the tired man at the station says "We can't tell who's alive. All we ever know is that the tourists survived." Tra la, tra la, let's go, they say, let's go, Pompeii And I think about Pompeii when I feel an end is near Just before the rain and every time you disappear. And I think about a teacup, suspended and half served All the scholars know is that it's perfectly preserved Oh, that's all, they say, this was Pompeii And as for my own kingdom, not a table leg was charred I simply lost my kingdom 'cause I held it much too hard And once I had a sadness, the sadness turned to trust The trust turned into ashes, and to lawyers, and to dust A century, a day, this was Pompeii This was Pompeii
