King Of The Mountain

(album: And Along Came Jones - 1991)

I gave her that diamond she dreamed of,
And I bought her a home with a view;
I took her to the ends of the rainbow,
But all I left her was blue.

Seems I never had time to love her,
Now it seems time just stands still;
I thought I was king of the mountain,
But I was only a fool on the hill.

Now I'm here alone, after leaving her lonely,
Lord, I'm living with the memory I know I can't kill;
I thought I was king of the mountain,
But I was only a fool on the hill.

Now I'm here alone, after leaving her lonely,
Lord, I'm living with the memory I know I can't kill;
I thought I was king of the mountain,
But I was only a fool on the hill.

I thought I was king of the mountain,
But I was only a fool on the hill...
