"King Of The Mountain" lyrics

King Of The Mountain

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 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 leaving her lonely
Lord, I'm living
With the memory
I know I can't kill
I thought I was king of the mountain
But I was only
A fool on the hill

Well, I'm here alone
After leaving her lonely
Lord, I'm living
With the memory
I know I can't kill
I thought I was king of the mountain
But I was only
A fool on the hill

Yeah, I thought I was king of the mountain
But I was only
A fool on the hill
