all the king's men

shut your eyes my darling there's nothing you can say

the man in the moon won't fall on you

he doesn't live there anyway

you don't have to be a soldier to fight in your private war

let the blood you might see rain down on me

you don't have to fight no more

there's nothing you can say

there's nothing you can send

there's nothing that can change the facts

not all the king's men

you'll ride upon the stallion

i'll ride upon your mare

we'll ride so far ride so hard

far away from here

when we look back upon the

it all will become so clear

the gates will open up for us

we won't have no more fears

there's nothing you can say

there's nothing you can send

there's nothing that can change the facts

not all the king's men

look away look away

you might be tired and troubled but not today

when they come down upon you

i won't let them get anything on you

and we'll dream away all those fears and troubles may

look away

we both were motherless children

they sent us separate ways

the family you'd seen beat down on you

mine it was okay

i've come to take you back may

save you from this fate

they won't have any more chances

to treat you this way

there's nothing you can say

there's nothing you can send

there's nothing that can change all that

not all the king's men

there's nothing you can say

there's nothing you can send

there's nothing that can change all that

not all the king's men
