Lyrics
King Of The Mountain
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.
I gave her that diamond she dreamed of
And I bought her a home with a view
I took her to the end of the rainbow
But all I left her was blue
Seems like I never had time to love her
And now it seems time just stands still
I thought I was king of the mountain
But I was only a fool on the hill
Now I'm here alone after leavin' her lonely
Lord I'm livin' with a memory
I know I can't kill
I thought I was king of the mountain
But I was only a fool on the hill
Now I'm here alone after leavin' her lonely
Lord I'm livin' with a memory
I know I can't kill
I thought I was king of the mountain
But I was only a fool on the hill
I thought I was king of the mountain
But I was only a fool on the hill
