The King Of The World |
Strange how the rumble of fighter planes once |
Disturbed the rhythm of the balconies' plants |
And after silence then far away |
The sudden cannon’s roar |
And from the radio signals in code |
One day in heaven fires of Bengala |
Peace came back again |
Yet the King of the World |
Keeps our hearts enchained |
In the full white dresses |
Echoes of sufi dances |
In Japan’s undergrounds today |
Oxygen machines; |
The more all becomes useless |
The more we believe it’s true |
And in the final days |
English will not help |
And on our bicycles heading for home |
Life brushed us |
Yet the King of the World |
Keeps our hearts enchained |
