King for a Day - Thompson Twins

I know you well

And I can tell

Something's on your mind

'Cause in your dreams

The demon screams

I know he's going to

Hurt you blind

You say you hunger

For something you can't get 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

And 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 get 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 get at all

And love is not enough anymore

So listen

Love is all

Love is all

Love is all we need

Love is all

Love is all

Love is all we need, yeah

Love is all

Love is all

Love is all we need, yeah

Love is all

Love is all

Love is all we need, yeah

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 what love is

All we need to get us through

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

Just one thing to say

Love
