He Had the World
Staring down the east coast skyline
From the back seat of a coach bus on a highway to nowhere
He blinks twice, now there's nothing there
He lays his head against the window pane
As he watches the world pass him by
He begins to wonder about the world he's leaving behind
He held the world in his hands
But it slipped between his fingers like the sand
Before it ever really began
He ruled the world in his plans
But a king is nothing more than just a man
He had the world
Rocket down the highway fast-lane
Speeding far away from the days he had it all
Twice the pride, double the fall
His future is a question mark
But he holds out hope that he can find a second start
Still he remembers when she gave him her heart...
Still he remembers when he held the world in his hands
But it slipped between his fingers like the sand
Before it ever really began
He ruled the world in his plans
But a king is nothing more than just a man
He had the world
He spent his whole life running away
But time always catches him in the end
He spent his whole life running away
But time always catches you in the end
Yeah, I spend my whole life running away
But time always catches me in the end
Before it ever really begins
He held the world in his hands
But it slipped between his fingers like the sand
Before it ever really began
He ruled the world in his plans
But a king is nothing more than just a man
He had the world
From the back seat of a coach bus on a highway to nowhere
He blinks twice, now there's nothing there
He lays his head against the window pane
As he watches the world pass him by
He begins to wonder about the world he's leaving behind
He held the world in his hands
But it slipped between his fingers like the sand
Before it ever really began
He ruled the world in his plans
But a king is nothing more than just a man
He had the world
Rocket down the highway fast-lane
Speeding far away from the days he had it all
Twice the pride, double the fall
His future is a question mark
But he holds out hope that he can find a second start
Still he remembers when she gave him her heart...
Still he remembers when he held the world in his hands
But it slipped between his fingers like the sand
Before it ever really began
He ruled the world in his plans
But a king is nothing more than just a man
He had the world
He spent his whole life running away
But time always catches him in the end
He spent his whole life running away
But time always catches you in the end
Yeah, I spend my whole life running away
But time always catches me in the end
Before it ever really begins
He held the world in his hands
But it slipped between his fingers like the sand
Before it ever really began
He ruled the world in his plans
But a king is nothing more than just a man
He had the world
