Pet Shop Boys - King Of Rome Lyrics

Es de lógica de este mundo que a veces se deja de ser rey para ser emperador y qué se deja de ser emperador para ser rey.

My favourite song EVER

Pop-Art

Just..... I have no words..... Perfect...... Brilliant.......

👑👑👑👑👑👍👍👍👍😭😭😭😭

Extreme route by Unitas over Westu, etc, Zod, F.O. enormous # POW's in PREH (earth, plus)

Tenho 62 anos ,aprendi a gostar de Pet Shop Boys com meu filho que tem 44,essa e a musica mais linda,transmite uma paz.....

Eu tenho 24 e tbm gosto pra caramba

Pigeons

still listening in 2019.... perfect definition of timless music

Mayi's and Playor's song (wedding) 2014 fmr earth :) (both are false gods/blasphemers), Unitas)

One of their best if not the best.

Antoninus Pius (Playor, Vulpan) a joke....ldr Gateway. (in preh heaven colonies)

Hermosa voz la de neil que dulsura al oirla te amo

WOW; I just discovered this song! A masterpiece, xox

Linda música

i loved that song

👑👑👑

This song has always had a special place in my heart. I am an author who has written many books. In my very first book, Joshua's Island, I tell a story about two thirteen year olds who struggle with the bullies at their school. A former popular girl falls for a bullied boy/outcast. In a quiet moment at home, she daydreams about dancing with the boy and sharing their first kiss. This is the song they dance to.

Could this be the Pet Shop Boys’ most beautiful song with their most profound lyrics? I almost cry when he sings “I couldn’t be more lonely.”

I love the PSB❤

It's my favorite song ever

Sdds desses mitos😢😢isso sim é musica pros meus ouvidos✌✌✌

Napoleon II brought me here.

masterpiece, echoes of MR. MORRICONE

Hermosamente delicado.

Omg I love Neil's voice such a beautiful song wowwwwww

Such a beautiful masterpiece ❤️

geniales

Maravilhosa canção !

KING OF ROME WHAT A SONG !!

There's such a beautiful dreamy mood in this song... <3

Napoleon II like the song

Small man, big world

Lost beyond the pale

I know you

Inside out

I... can tell the tale



Across the sky

The change of time

Last night I lost all day

I'm here and there

I'm anywhere

Away... from Manderley



And if I were

The king of Rome

I couldn't be more tragic

My fate to Rome

So far from home

In search... of my last 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

My shadow's cast

Arriving... with a purpose



Oh... baby, come here

Oh... baby, come here 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, come here

Oh... baby, come here today



I long for your inscrutable, pale face

I hunger for your beautiful embrace

Achei 😍❤

boa linda

Small man, big world
Lost beyond the pale
I know you inside out
I can tell the tale

Across the sky the change of time
Last night I lost all 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 mindless 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__♫

Oceanographer Radio thank you ...

5:09 could listen to this over and over and over and

Supertramp

Andy Martin Absolutely agree with you!!! Incredible!!!

I did when I first heard/discovered this 6 years ago now...stayed up all night into early morning; couldn't believe this song existed.

Humbling. Outstandingly beautiful.

hermosa cancion,la voz de Neil perfecta

Acho esta música tão chique...

彼らの曲の中でも、TOP3に入るぐらいの名曲・・・

Relaxante.

A tutti gli you tuber le canzoni che voi proponete sono senpre molto belle

Recollection of those painful, strange, new and confusing times....

And if I were the king of Rome...
This music makes me travel inside my own mind!

relaxing like "kings cross" or "my october symphony".

sognante suono ..magia

Neil voice is like heaven

+Israel Tzur 4:48...

So relaxing PSB song, like Liberation :)! Neil's voice doesn't change from 1985

+Andrius Stasiukynas right

Have to agree, probably one of my favourites on the album. Wonderfully beautiful track, I love the arrangement.

+Richard Painter I love it!!!

Richard Painter Yes!

This song is soo chic, i almost feel the breeze from the french riviera! Well done!

Vitor Jay beautiful comment <3

This is the MOST beautiful song I have ever heard! I first discovered PSB when in a club in Florence, Italy many, many years ago and they have brought me much joy since, especially because they remind me of wonderful times in my life, but I just discovered this song and it blew my mind! It is exquisite, gorgeous, delicious and I can't get it out of my head! I adore PSB because like I said, it reminds me of the best of times! Love them, but Neil's exquisite, haunting voice will remain with me forever!

Thanks for the heads up! Will check it out. Ciao!

+mibello aleman Did you check out the book? Just curious.

Hi Patrick. No, I haven't read the book. I've been sick for a while, so I didn't remember about the book. Plus, it's not in the library, so I'm not able to read it.  But I'm sure it's wonderful.

+mibello aleman Sorry to hear you've been sick. No, my book is not in libraries. Just on Amazon. You can contact me on Twitter and I'll send you a copy if you like. :)

Aw Patrick, your message is so sweet! Well, to be perfectly honest, I can't afford to buy it because I'm on a very fixed income, and I don't have twitter. So, I take books out of the library. I've had to streamlined my life several years ago when it was turned upside down, especially financially. I don't even have a cell phone, but then I don't need it. But I so appreciate your offer and your kindness. Thanks!

I used to cruise around in Las Vegas, Nevada with "my little girls"; beautiful little angels. But, the world swept them away from me; they are so lost now, but one of the songs was "West-End Girls"; oh, the fond memories of those days. 

i understand you.despite i m french........lol emotion is universal

I love this music--got me through some really rough times--only good ahead.  Thank you.

Cette une belle chanson.

Exatament

Bravo!!

Absolutely, incredibly beautifully music.  Just DOES NOT get better than this.  

the lyrics from every psb track make the difference to every single pop song out there or is it that i am a mad fanatic of them? Las letras de cada pieza de los psb hacen la diferencia con cada canción pop que hay o ¿será q son un fanático loco por su música?

+David Avila Absol Yes, I've always thought so myself. Lyrics are just brilliant and that makes the difference

обалденно... чувственно.. нежно...

любовная лирика)

Gorgeous. Goose pimples every time. I've never grown tired of this track. It's so beautiful.

Probably the best song on the album, IMO

Thumbs up if you heard that scream at 3:20

A song of sadness and loneliness, neither of which were deserved, about a relatively minor historical figure (an exiled son of Napoleon Bonaparte). His loneliness is palpable, and he remains sad and empty throughout the playing of this song....

"In search of my lost Magic " !! Soul Baring !! love this track Love PSB .... the desert moon a new lagoon ....

Lord this music is a gift from you to PSB to us !!!!!! 11/10 !!!

This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard (reminiscent of "I cried for us" in some ways). The tiredness and boredom of the singer is so evident, both in the lyrics and the melody. Words and phrases such as "world-weary" and "bored with life" come to mind whenever I hear this song; I also feel a deep core of intense sadness whenever I hear this song. The singer has seen the world but has not realized any inner potential for peace, nor does he feel loved....

Philip Chandler

To be literal, losing a lover to constant traveling...[worldly] ambition(s)?

This song is a few years old now but I stil love it. The synth is fab.

Blissful. Love it.

very cool song

"I couldn't be more tragic"....classic Pet Shop Boys lyrics.

The worst thing in the world is knowing that in a profession you'll ever overcome someone who has a talent above normal. In music, the Pet Shop Boys are myths. They are an ability and intelligence rarely found on this planet. Pet Shop Boys unbeatable! Nothing was, is or will be greater than Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe, the Pet Shop Boys

A pior coisa no mundo é saber que em uma profissão você jamais irá superar alguém que possui um talento acima do normal. Na Música, os Pet Shop Boys são mitos. São de uma capacidade e inteligência que raramente encontramos neste planeta. Pet Shop Boys imbatíveis!!! Nada foi, é, ou será maior que Neil Tennant e Chris Lowe, Os Pet Shop Boys

Pet Shop Boys at their best! Keep making good music "boys"!

raffinata e delicata . bellissima

raffinata e delicata

I have been in love and this is it!

CUT THE FUCK & GROW UP

Pleas do not read this. You will be kissed on the nearest possible Friday by the love of your life. Tomorrow will be the best day of your life. Now you've started to read this. DO NOT STOP. THIS IS SO FREAKY.

1. Say your name 10 times.

2. Say your mom's name 5 times.

3. Say your crushes name 3 times.

4. Paste this to 3 other songs. If you do your crush will kiss you on the nearest Friday. But if you read this and do not paste this you will have very bad luck

I want this song to be played at my birth.

love song for every body - una cancion de amor para todos-as.

Wow!!! This is REALLY good!! Great voice,Neil!!

Thst's a great song. Thanks Pet Shop Boys.

<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 i think i fell in love with the song

I thought this was the folk song about pidgeon racing-thought it was a bit odd for the PSBs to be doing a cover!

this is not music....this is art! PSB masters
