Hard-Fi - The king


In this town
I used to be the King here
Now I don't mean a thing here
Where did it all go wrong?

Look around
No one knows my face here
Feel so out of place here
Where did it all go wrong?

I see your name
And I wonder where you are now
I hope you're doing fine now
I hope that you found love

I hope you found love
Oooh oooh
I hope that you found love
Oooh oooh

I've been thinking longer
Every waking hour
Staring at the wall
Trying to find the nerve to call
Catch your photo and I wonder
Are you still on this number
But in my heart I know
You changed that number long ago
Once I was the King

Said goodbye
You begged me not to leave you
I didn't want to leave you
But you know I had to go

I said look for me
When the spring sun shines on the street,
Where we'd meet and plan our future
But I never made it home

I turn around
Head on over to your house yeah
Just in case you might still be there
But now they've pulled it down

Now they've pulled it down
Oooh oooh
I hope that you found love
Wonder what you're doing now
I hope that you found love
Wonder what you're doing now
I hope that you found love
Oooh oooh

I've been thinking longer
Every waking hour
Staring at the wall
Trying to find the nerve to call
Catch your photo and I wonder
Are you still on this number
But in my heart I know
You changed that number long ago
Nowhere is home, and I feel old
My clothes are torn, my heart is cold
With you I was the king
With you my heart would sing
But now my stories done
Now I am no one
But once I was the king
