Lyrics for Song: The Road To Mandalay
Lyrics for Album: Sing When You're Winning
Save me from drowning in the sea
Beat me up on the beach
What a lovely holiday, there's nothing funny left to say
This sombre song won't drain the sun
But it won't shine until it's sung
No water running in the stream, the saddest place we've ever seen
Everything i touched was golden,
Everything i loved got broken
On the road to mandalay
Every mistake i've ever made
Has been rehashed and then replayed
As i got lost along the way
bom bom bom ba da dup bom bom
bom bom bom ba da dup bom bom
bom bom bom ba da dup bom bom
bom badom
There's nothing left for you to give,
The truth is all that you're left with
Twenty paces then at dawn, we will die and be reborn
I like to sleep beneath the trees,
Have the universe at one with me
Look down the barrel of a gun and feel the moon replace the sun
Everything we've ever stolen
Has been lost, returned or broken,
No more dragons left to slay
Every mistake I've ever made
Has been rehashed and then replayed
As i got lost along the way
(3x)
bom bom bom ba da dup bom bom
bom bom bom ba da dup bom bom
bom bom bom ba da dup bom bom
bom badom
Save me from drowning in the sea
Beat me up on the beach
What a lovely holiday, there's nothing funny left to say

The Road To Mandalay
Robbie Williams' 2004 single "The Road To Mandalay" stands as a defining track from his album *Sing When You're Winning*. Released during a period where Williams successfully blended his signature pop sensibilities with a more mature, rock-inflected sound, the song showcases his ability to craft anthemic melodies that resonate across generations. The recording features his characteristic vocal delivery, characterized by a blend of grit and melodic clarity, set against a driving rhythm that underscores themes of resilience and the journey ahead. As a staple of his discography, the track exemplifies the evolution of his musical style, bridging the gap between his early boy-band era and his subsequent solo achievements. It remains a popular choice for live performances, demonstrating its enduring appeal within the contemporary pop landscape. |
