Always had the best of everything
Anything money could buy
I go first class and I'll live like a king till I die
I surround myself with treasure and devote each day to pleasure
Until late at night this king begins to cry

And I have cried like a baby in the darkness of my room
Nobody there to hold my tremblin' hand
And I cried like a baby in the darkness of my room
With nobody there to love or understand

In the comfort of my castle I have lived my life in style
Let the troubled world just up and pass me by
I surround myself with treasure and I fill each day with pleasure
Until late at night this king begins to cry

And I have cried like a baby in the darkness of my room
Nobody there to hold my tremblin' hand
And I cried like a baby in the darkness of my room
With nobody there to love or understand

In the hollow of an empire
I become a warrior king
Hunting golden deals and million dollar schemes
When our fate has been decided
And my soul's been subdivided
I will cry alone for half forgotten dreams

And I have cried like a baby in the darkness of my room
Nobody there to hold my tremblin' hand
And I cried like a baby in the darkness of my room
With nobody there to love or understand

Cried like a baby in the darkness of my room
Nobody there to hold my tremblin' hand
And I cried like a baby in the darkness of my room
With nobody there to love or understand me
