Lyrics
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
From
Yes
