"King of Broken Hearts"
The king of broken hearts
Doesn't ask much from his friends
And he has quite a few of them
They know he'll understand
That's just the way it goes.
The king of broken hearts
Doesn't know he's a king
He's trying to forget other things
Like some ol' chilly scenes
He's walkin' through alone.
He talks to angels and the stars start to spin
He thinks of troubles that he's gotten in'
He recalls how his heart got broken
And how it's still that way.
The king of broken hearts is so sad and wise
He can smile while he's cryin' inside
We know he'll be brave tonight
'Cause he's the king of broken hearts.

He talks to angels and the stars start to spin
He thinks of troubles that he's gotten in'
He recalls how his heart got broken
And how it's still this way.
The king of broken hearts
Thinks that he's an ol' fool
He's a little bit like me and you
So what's a king like that suppose to do
With all that blue time?
We know he'll be brave tonight
'Cause he's the king of broken hearts.
He's the king of broken hearts...
