The Man Who Would Be King

Murray / Harris [8:28]
Lu 1725 fois
As he travels on the
beast of burden
Moving up along the moutainside
As he gazes looking down the
Valley
No regrets but his pride

As he journeys across
moutain passes
Insignificance sweeps over him
His reflection of the beauty
Round him
Feeling empty inside

He is running from his
wildest thoughts
He is running from his everything
He is looking now to
find something
Hoping he can be saved

He's searching for the answer now
It's something that he's managed to
avoid up 'til now
Real conviction that he craves
He needs to find the answer
sooner than later

Pushed himself to the limits
He had to strive for all the harder
things in life
But what the cost of giving now
His life his time are the only things
That he has

Life is not a rehearsal
All he has is the one chance
to get it right
Leaving really is the only
way to know

Maybe one day they'll forgive him
what he's done
But now the pain of lying too
Early in the grave

Destiny no good to hide away
Penance now will be his only way
Understand no good to run away
Penance now will be his saving
Grace

He tries to make his peace
with God
All is forgivable but it's left
a little late
Trying something that he's not
Is it possible to change such a lot

He's taken someone's life away
There's not a day goes by
He regrets what he's done
He should have found another way
But the good book says
an eye for an eye

In reflecting on decisions
that were made
On the judgements that will
haunt him 'til his grave
No one has the right to
take another life
But in his mind he had no choice
So be it

Destiny no good to hide away
Penance now will be his only way
Understand no good to run away
Penance now will be his saving
Grace

Far far away the man
who would be king
So far away the man
who would be king
Far far away the man
who would be king		 Iron Maiden The Final Frontier
