Lyrics If I Were King - Queensrÿche

If I Were King

I have so much more to say, my brother
Can you hear me?
A fool is left to live as the brave ones fall
I swear if I were able
I would have done the same for you
But now you’re gone and I wish I were too
I spend all my time asking questions
How can I pay you back when
The price you paid was so, so high, my friends?
(If I were king)
If I were king of all I imagine
I would trade all I am to have you by my side
If I were king
I have too much time today, my brother
Can you hear me?
I know where I am, but I still feel lost
Please know that I am grateful
For the years you gave to me Everything’s changed, but nothing changes for you
I won’t waste my life asking questions
I’ve seen the horror of war and
There’s so much more for a man who’s been where I’ve been
(If I were king)
If I were king of all I imagine
I would trade all I am to have you by my side
(If I were king)
If I were king of all I imagine
We would both be back home living the rest of our lives
If I were king
If I were king
(If I were king)
If I were king of all I imagine
I would trade all I am to have you by my side
(If I were king)
If I were king of all I imagine
We would both be back home living the rest of our lives
If I were king
