King of the ocean, riding the 7 seas,
But every thought of you is floating on the breeze,
Every thought of you is floating on the breeze.
Left to find kingdoms, but leaving a kingdom behind.
Oh every thought of you is always on my mind,
Every thought of you is always on mind.
Oh your memory stronger than a thousand ships of war to call me home.
And though its glory I'm chasing its from glory I run, those glory days are done!
But I won't break, even when the earth around me shakes,
When the things that have built us up have brought us down,
Sometimes you have to leave the things you love for love.
Your sirens sigh, your whisper always louder than your cry,
But you memory lives long beyond goodbye,
Oh I know that I have to leave and can't come back for you.
Oh remember the winters, light hearts and the lonely trees,
They're the memories I'll always keep with me,
They're the memories I always keep with me.
The wide world between us, still see you with each new sun,
But now I have to tell myself those days are done,
Now I have to tell myself those days are done.
Oh your memory stronger than a thousand ships of war to call me home.
And though its glory I'm chasing its from glory I run, those glory days are done!
But I won't break, even when the earth around me shakes,
When the things that have built us up have brought us down,
Sometimes you have to leave the things you love for love.
Your sirens sigh, your whisper always louder than your cry,
But you memory lives long beyond goodbye,
Oh I know that I have to leave and can't come back for you.
