King of Rome

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Small man, big world Lost beyond the pale I know you Inside out I can tell the tale [Verse 2] Across the sky The change of time Last night I lost all day I'm here and there I'm anywhere Away from Manderley [Chorus] And if I were The king of Rome I couldn't be more tragic My fate to roam So far from home In search of my last magic [Refrain] Oh, baby come back Oh, baby come back to me [Verse 3] The desert moon A new lagoon We glide upon the surface Night falls fast My shadow's cast Arriving with a purpose [Refrain] Oh, baby call me Oh, baby call me today [Chorus] And if I were The king of Rome I couldn't be more lonely With so much scope To dream and hope Someday you'll deign to phone me [Refrain] Oh, baby call me Oh, baby call me today [Outro] I long for your inscrutable, pale face I hunger for your beautiful embrace
