| [00:04.49] |
I used to rule the world |
| [00:07.734] |
Seas would rise when I gave the word |
| [00:10.187] |
Now in the morning I sleep alone |
| [00:14.569] |
Sweep the streets I used to own |
| [00:31.512] |
I used to roll the dice |
| [00:34.764] |
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes |
| [00:37.896] |
Listen as the crowd would sing |
| [00:41.858] |
"Now the old king is dead!Long live the king!" |
| [00:45.96] |
One minute I held the key |
| [00:48.733] |
Next the walls were closed on me |
| [00:51.462] |
And I discovered that my castles stand |
| [00:55.261] |
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand |
| [00:59.248] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing |
| [01:02.869] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [01:06.256] |
Be my mirror,my sword and shield |
| [01:09.678] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [01:12.990] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [01:16.456] |
Once you go there was never |
| [01:19.198] |
Never an honest word |
| [01:23.103] |
And that was when I ruled the world |
| [01:39.855] |
It was the wicked and wild wind |
| [01:43.378] |
Blew down the doors to let me in |
| [01:46.242] |
Shattered windows and the sound of drums |
| [01:50.54] |
People couldn't believe what I'd become |
| [01:53.758] |
Revolutionaries wait |
| [01:57.410] |
For my head on a silver plate |
| [02:00.136] |
Just a puppet on a lonely string |
| [02:04.40] |
Oh who would ever want to be king? |
| [02:08.196] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing |
| [02:11.339] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [02:14.993] |
Be my mirror,my sword and shield |
| [02:18.224] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [02:21.778] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [02:25.93] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [02:28.114] |
Never an honest word |
| [02:31.631] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [03:03.165] |
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing |
| [03:06.204] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [03:09.684] |
Be my mirror,my sword and shield |
| [03:13.68] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [03:16.543] |
For some reason I can't explain |
| [03:19.879] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [03:23.188] |
Never an honest word |
| [03:26.552] |
But that was when I ruled the world. |
