Lyrics I Used to Be a King - Neil Young

I Used to Be a King

I used to be a king and everything around me
Turned to gold
I thought i had everything and now i’m left without a hand to
Hold
But it’s all right i’m o.k.
how are you?
For what it’s worth i must say i loved you
And in my bed late at night, i miss you
Someone is going to take my heart
But no one is going to break my heart again
I used to be a king and everything around me
Turned to rust
It’s `cause i built my life on sand
And i watched it crumble in the dust
But it’s all right i’m o.k.
and i want to know
How you are
For what it’s worth i must say i loved you as you are
And in my bed where are you?
Someone is going to take my heart
But no one is going to break my heart again
I used to be a king and everything around
Me turned around
But i know all i have to do is sing
And i’ll lift myself way off the ground
Yeah, but it’s all right i’m o.k.
how are you?
For what it’s worth i must say i loved you
And in my bed late at night where are you?
Someone is going to take my heart
But no one is going to break my heart again
