lyrics

Fallen King
Once I built a castle out of air
And made you queen of all that was there
And every dream was just as it should be
I found your love as a river finds the sea
But now that kingdom’s lost and can’t be found
Now I’m just a king without a crown; lord, now I’m just a king without a crown.

Once the sky was the colour of your eyes
And the wind recalled the lightest of your sighs
The sun reflected the colours in your hair
And every day was lived without a care
But now that kingdom’s lost and can’t be found
Now I’m a just a king without a crown; lord, now I’m just a king without a crown.

Chorus
My hope is lost, now that you’re not here
I’m a fallen king in a land of tears
My hope is lost, now that you’re not here
I’m a fallen king in a land of tears.

Once you sat so proudly by my side
You were my faith, my soul & my pride
Happy was the land where we knew love
And a golden sun shone brightly from above
But now that kingdom’s lost and can’t be found
Now I’m just a king without a crown; lord, now I’m just a king without a crown.

Chorus

(Instrumental)

Chorus

Dreams are all they ever give for free
And you made me the man that I should be
I gave you the castle that was my heart
And swore to you that we would never part
But now that’s kingdom’s lost and can’t be found
Now I’m just a king without a crown; lord, now I’m just a king without a crown
Now I’m just a king without a crown.

Chorus

In a land of tears, a land of tears, a land of tears.
