Текст (слова) песни: June Tabor - The King Of Rome



(David Sudbury)
In the West End of Derby lives a working man
He says "I can`t fly but me pigeons can
And when I set them free
It`s just like part of me
Gets lifted up on shining wings"
Charlie Edson`s pigeon loft was down the yard
Of a rented house in Brook Street where life was hard
But Charlie had a dream
And in 1913
Charlie bred a pigeon that made his dream come true
There was gonna be a champions` race from Italy
"Look at the maps, all that land and sea
Charlie, you`ll lose that bird"
But Charlie never heard
He put it in a basket and sent it off to Rome
On the day o` the big race a storm blew in
A thousand birds were swept away and never seen again
"Charlie we told you so
Surely by now you know
When you`re living in the West End there ain`t many dreams come true"
"Yeah, I know, but I had to try
A man can crawl around or he can learn to fly
And if you live `round here
The ground seems awful near
Sometimes I need a lift from victory"
I was off with me mates for a pint or two
When I saw a wing flash up in the blue
"Charlie, it`s the King of Rome
Come back to his West End home
Come outside quick, he`s perched up on your roof"
"Come on down, Your Majesty
I knew you`d make it back to me
Come on down, you lovely one
You made me dream come true"
In the West End of Derby lives a working man
He says "I can`t fly but me pigeons can
And when I set them free
It`s just like part of me
Gets lifted up on shining wings"
