The king of broken hearts
Doesn't ask much from his friends
And he has quite a few of them
They know he will understand
That's just the way it goes
The king of broken hearts
Doesn't know he's a king
He's trying to forget other things
Like some old ship at seas
He's walking through alone
He talks to angels
And the stars start to spin
He thinks of troubles
That he's gotten in
He recalls how his heart got broken
And how it's still that way
The king of broken hearts
Is so sad and wise
He can smile
While he's crying inside
We know he'll be brave tonight
Cause he's the king of broken hearts
He talks to angels
And the stars start to spin
He thinks of troubles
That he's gotten in
He recalls how his heart got broken
And how it's still that way
The king of broken hearts
Thinks that he's no fool
He's a little bit like me and you
So what's a king like that
Supposed to do
With all that blue time
We know he'll be brave tonight
Cause he's the king of broken hearts
He's the king of broken hearts
