[Verse 1: Chris Martin] Una volta governavo il mondo I mari si sarebbero sollevati al mio comando Ora al mattino, dormo da solo Spazzo le strade che una volta possedevo [Interlude strumentale] [Verse 2: Chris Martin] Una volta lanciavo i dadi Sentivo la paura negli occhi del mio nemico Ascoltavo mentre la folla cantava "Ora il vecchio re è morto, lunga vita al re" Per un momento, avevo la chiave Poi, le mura si sono chiuse su di me E ho scoperto che i miei castelli si ergono Su colonne di sale e colonne di sabbia [Chorus: Chris Martin] Sento le campane di Gerusalemme suonare Le corali di cavalleria romana cantare Sii il mio specchio, la mia spada e il mio scudo I miei missionari in terra straniera Per qualche ragione, non riesco a spiegare Una volta che te ne sei andato, non c'è mai stata Mai una parola sincera Ed era quando governavo il mondo
Original lyrics
[Verse 1: Chris Martin]
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning, I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Verse 2: Chris Martin]
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
"Now the old king is dead, long live the king"
One minute, I held the key
Next, the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
[Chorus: Chris Martin]
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin'
Roman cavalry choirs are singin'
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason, I can't explain
Once you'd gone, there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world
