Kingdom For A Heart


[Music and lyrics by Tony Kakko]

What the hell are you standing there for,
Expecting me to help you, when I'm down myself
Waiting my saviour, my world is flooding over,
There's no room for me, I can't breathe,
I would give a kingdom for one more day

I'd give - a kingdom
For one more day as a king of your world
I'd give a kingdom, for just one more day - hey!

[Solos]

What the hell am I waiting here for,
Expecting you to come and give away your life
Just for a moment of my time, have a hole where I should have a heart,
I'm made of wood, I'm falling apart,
I would give a kingdom if I only had you

I'd give - a kingdom
For one more day as a kind of your world
I'd give a kingdom, if I had a heart

[Chorus:]
I'd give it all for a heart
if I was a King I would give away my kingdom
Treasures and crowns wouldn't mean a thing
If I only had a heart, if I only had a heart...

[Solos]

Now I know I will never love you,
I'm a man without a heart,
I'm not allowed to feel human feelings
I'm king of the land, I'm a ruler of seas,
I'd give it away in a moment.
If I only had one moment

I'd give - a kingdom
For one more day as a king of your world
I'd give a kingdom, if I had a heart

I'd give it all for a heart
if I was a King I would give away my kingdom
Treasures and crowns wouldn't mean a thing
If I only had a heart

[Chorus x2]

[Solos]
