King of Rome

Small man, big world

Lost beyond the pale

I know you inside out

I can tell the tale

Across the sky, a change of time

Last night, I lost a day

I'm here and there or anywhere

Away from Manderley

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 lost magic

Oh, baby come back

Oh, baby come back to me

The desert moon, a new lagoon

We glide up on the surface

Night falls fast, no shadows cast

Arriving without purpose

Oh, baby call me

Oh, baby call me today

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

Oh, baby call me

Oh, baby call me today

I long for your inscrutable pale face

I hunger for your beautiful embrace
