Marc Almond - King Of The Fools lyrics

rate me

Oh there he goes

The king with the wooden crown

A throne alone

He's looking so sad and alone

King of his world

He roams through his kingdom at night

It looks so good

Until it all fades into the morning light

Tonight's looking beautiful

Sad but so beautiful

Dark yet so wonderful

Hold your head high because

Sorrow becomes you, you wear it so well

Sorrow becomes you it's easy to tell

Though my heart always rules

I'll be king of the fools

Wearing sorrow with my crown of tears

Look at the world

Ruled by kings with wooden crowns

They are the fools

These princes with nothing to say - Hey hey!

Sometimes I feel

Like a king with a wooden crown

It's a lonely world

When your dreams keep fading away

Tonight's looking beautiful

Sad but so beautiful

Dark yet so wonderful

Hold your head high because

Sorrow becomes you, you wear it so well

Sorrow becomes you it's easy to tell

Though my heart always rules

I'll be king of the fools

Wearing sorrow with my crown of tears

King of the fools

I'll be king of the fools

With my crown of sorrow

I'm king of the fools

Sorrow becomes you, you wear it so well

Sorrow becomes you it's easy to tell

Though my heart always rules

I'll be king of the fools

Wearing sorrow with my crown of tears

I dressed you in sorrows

I dressed you in blues

So my heart felt so hollow

My whole life was you

I'll be king of the fools

I'll be king of the fools

With my crown of sorrow

I'm king of the fools
