The king of broken hearts doesnt ask much from his friends And he has quite a few of them They know he will understand Thats just the way it goes Theking of broken hearts doesnt know hes a king Hes tryin to forget other things Like some old ship at sea Hes walkin through life alone He talks to angels And the stars start to spin He thinks of troubles that hes gotten in He recalls how his heart got broken And how its still that way The king of broken hearts is so sad and wise He can smile while hes cryin inside We know hell be brave tonight Cause hes the king of broken hearts He talks to angels And the stars start to spin He thinks of the troubles that hes gotten in He recalls how his heart got broken And how its still that way The king of broken hearts thinks that hes no fool Hes a little like me and you So whats a king like that supposed to do With all that blue time We know hell be brave tonight Cause hes the king of broken hearts Hes the king of broken hearts
