The King Of The World

The King Of The World Lyrics

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
Echeos of Sufi dances
In Japan's undergrounds today
Oxygen machines
