King for a Day Lyrics

I know you well
And I can tell
Something's on your mind
'Cos in your dreams
The demon screams
And I know he's gonna hurt you blind

You say you hunger for something you can't name at all
And love is not enough anymore

If I was king for just one day
I would give it all away
I would give it all away to be with you
If I was king for just one day
I have just one thing to say
You know that love is
all we need to get us through

Diamond rings
And all those things
They never sparkle like your smile
And as for fame
It's just a name
that only satisfies you for a while

You say you hunger for something you can't name at all
And love is not enough anymore

If I was king for just one day
I would give it all away
I would give it all away to be with you
If I was king for just one day
I have just one thing to say
You know that love is
all we need to get us through
I've heard it said
Or maybe read
Only money makes the world go round

But all the gold
Won't heal your soul
If your world should tumble to the ground

You say you hunger for something you can't name at all
And love is not enough anymore

If I was king for just one day
I would give it all away
I would give it all away to be with you
If I was king for just one day
I have just one thing to say
You know that love is
all we need to get us through
