King Of The World

High on a hill

The valley below me

The blue sky above me

My dream was so real

I could not hear

The hum of the highway

Or the drums of the foundry

Pounding out steel

I didn't need no money

I didn't need no time

I didn't need nothing

But my own piece of mind

And to know that

A voice like a whisper

Is bound to be heard

For just one moment

I'm the king of the world

For just one moment

I'm the king of the world

So I close my eyes

I let the power defeat me

Because the real world can't free me

From this dirty old town

Where the four winds blow

I send my troubles rolling

Since the world just kept turning

I let it go round

See I took it all in

Like time takes forever

In a dream that you never

Believed would come true

Then I gave it away

I just had to surrender

Man I just can't remember

When I felt so good
