| [00:16.400] |
I used to rule the world |
| [00:20.670] |
Seas would rise when I gave the word |
| [00:23.930] |
Now in the morning I sleep alone |
| [00:29.180] |
Sweep the streets I used to own |
| [00:33.730] |
|
| [00:41.660] |
I used to roll the dice |
| [00:46.250] |
Feel the fear in my enemies eyes |
| [00:50.220] |
Listen as the crowd would sing |
| [00:54.890] |
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the King!" |
| [00:58.380] |
One minute I held the key |
| [01:03.130] |
Next the walls were closed on me |
| [01:06.340] |
And I discovered that my castles stand |
| [01:11.940] |
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand |
| [01:13.580] |
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing |
| [01:16.100] |
|
| [01:16.990] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [01:21.230] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [01:25.350] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [01:29.730] |
For some reason I can not explain |
| [01:33.380] |
Once you know there was never' never an honest word |
| [01:40.680] |
|
| [01:41.380] |
That was when I ruled the world |
| [01:53.400] |
It was the wicked and wild wind |
| [01:58.190] |
Blew down the doors to let me in |
| [02:01.388] |
Shattered windows and the sound of drums |
| [02:06.627] |
People could not believe what I'd become |
| [02:10.467] |
Revolutionaries wait |
| [02:15.138] |
For my head on a silver plate |
| [02:17.398] |
Just a puppet on a lonely string |
| [02:22.458] |
Oh who would ever want to be King? |
| [02:25.317] |
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing |
| [02:25.698] |
|
| [02:29.700] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [02:33.860] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [02:36.186] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [02:39.886] |
For some reason I can not explain |
| [02:43.268] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [02:46.359] |
Never an honest word |
| [02:49.759] |
And that was when I ruled the world |
| [02:51.169] |
|
| [03:21.668] |
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringings |
| [03:24.435] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [03:28.795] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [03:32.775] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [03:37.677] |
For some reason I can not explain |
| [03:41.677] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [03:45.968] |
Never an honest word |
| [03:50.680] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [03:58.680] |
|
| [04:04.995] |
|
| [04:13.869] |
