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 upon 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
