Crossing the Rubicon

He is crossing the Rubicon

Hundred years before our lord, from the cradle to the sword

A sign of what's to come, of what can be undone

On to conquest tempting fate, in the footsteps of the great

A consul on the move, he's building bridges and his

Enemies enter the field

Knowing their fate has been sealed

Africa, Italy, Spain and Gaul will kneel

He is crossing the Rubicon

Heading home to where he belong

Born to rule it alone, the glory of Rome

He is crossing the Rubicon

Over the river at last, the die has been cast

Fortune does favour the brave, from the Senate to the grave

This man would seek it all, this man would heed the call

The republics doom and fall, he's the man who caused it all

Dictator on the move, he's burning bridges as his

Grip of the power of Rome

Secured as he heads for the throne

The 15th of March the knives would cut to the bone

He is crossing the Rubicon

Heading home to where he belong

Born to rule it alone, the glory of Rome

He is crossing the Rubicon

Over the river at last, the die has been cast

He is crossing the Rubicon

Heading home to where he belong

Born to rule it alone, the glory of Rome

He is crossing the Rubicon

Over the river at last, the die has been cast
