歌词
I used to rule the world
大千世界曾由我主宰
Seas would rise when I gave the word
巨浪也曾因我之命澎湃
Now in the morning I sleep alone
而今我却在黎明独自入眠
Sweep the streets I used to own
在曾属于我的大道落寞徘徊
I used to roll the dice, feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
大千世界曾由我主宰,尽情品味惊恐在死敌瞳孔绽开
Listen as the crowd would sing
欣然倾听百姓高歌喝彩
Now the old King is dead, long live the King
“先王亡矣！”“新王万代！”
One minute I held the key
此刻我手握权位经脉
Next the walls were closed on me
转瞬才知宫墙深似海
And I discovered that my castles stand
恍然发现我的城池
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
基底散如盐沙乱似尘埃
听那耶路撒冷钟声传来
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
担当我的明镜,利剑和盾牌
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
我的传教士屹立边疆之外
My missionaries in a foreign field
只因一些缘由我无法释怀
For some reason I can't explain
一旦你离开这里便不再
Once you go there was never
不再有逆耳忠言存在
Never an honest word
而这便是我统治的时代
And that was when I ruled the world
凛冽邪风呼啸袭来
吹散重门使我深陷阴霾
It was the wicked and wild wind
断壁残垣礼崩乐坏
Blew down the doors to let me in
世人不敢相信我已当年不再
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
起义大军翘首期待
People couldn't believe what I'd become
有朝一日我站上断头台
Revolutionaries wait
恰如傀儡随吊线寂寞摇摆
For my head on a silver plate
悲哉,谁又曾渴望万人膜拜？
Just a puppet on a lonely string
听那耶路撒冷钟声传来
Oh who would ever want to be king?
罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海
担当我的明镜,利剑和盾牌
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
我的传教士屹立边疆之外
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
只因一些缘由我无法释怀
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
我亦知天堂之门不会为我敞开
My missionaries in a foreign field
不再有逆耳忠言存在
For some reason I can't explain
而这便是我统治的时代
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
听那耶路撒冷钟声传来
Never an honest word
罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海
But that was when I ruled the world
担当我的明镜,利剑和盾牌
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
我的传教士屹立边疆之外
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
只因一些缘由我无法释怀
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
我亦知天堂之门不会为我敞开
My missionaries in a foreign field
不再有逆耳忠言存在
For some reason I can't explain
而这便是我统治的时代
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
而这便是我统治的时代
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
But that was when I ruled the world
