You Could Be a King
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Memories in my mind,
Of another time
Now I feel it's right to share
The rebel in my soul is yours to tame
Life is not a cross we bear
Take a look around
Time flows like a river she goes
Make the best of what you've got
When a man is born
Into the earth he's thrown
Make this your paradise
You could be a king
But it don't mean a thing
If what's in your heart
Remains unspoken
Look for the truth
Before it looks for you
Your heart strong and never broken
There's a city in the sky
Built for you and I
Keeps up dreaming on and on, on and on
Now I search for my soul,
Looking for a sign
Show you right where I went wrong
Take a look around
Ride the storm, safe in your arms
Catch the sun to light your way
