There's no way

I'm coming 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 talking straighter

Now don't you worry

I won't put you down

I'm in no hurry, baby

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 learnt is patience

So look before you leap

To tell the world your coloured story

It's clear your talk is cheap

You'd do anything to get your glory

So spread your wings and fly

There is no doubt

You're so sorry inside you've got something 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, baby

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 something to, something 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
