King for a Day

There's no way I'm comin' back to you

I've just got to say that everything we did is through

You tried to undermine the better ranges of my nature

But soon, you're going to find you should have started talkin' straighter

Now don't you worry, I won't put you down

I'm in no hurry, babe, to see you go to ground

Because it's true what they say, you know it's true what they say

You're only king for a day, I guess you're happy that way

Well, there's no hope for peace and reconciliation

You're quick to play your hand, but what you haven't learned is patience

So look before you leap to tell the world a colored story

It's clear your talk is cheap, do anything to get your glory

So spread your wings and fly, there is no doubt

You're so sorry inside, you've got somethin' to shout about

Because it's true what they say, you know it's true what they say

You're only king for a day, I guess you're happy that way

And there's no love, ever, to be lost between us

I guess this is because the damage that you've done is so grievous

So I hang my head to dwell on what might have been

But what you left instead is pieces of a broken dream

Now, don't you worry, I won't put you down

I'm in no hurry, babe, to see you go to ground

Because it's true what they say, you know it's true what they say

You're only king for a day, I guess you're happy that way

So spread your wings and fly, there is no doubt

You're so sorry inside, you've got somethin' to

Somethin' to shout about

Because it's true what they say, you know it's true what they say

You're only king for a day, I guess you're happy that way

Don't you see that you're only king for a day?

You must believe that
