King Of The World

high on a hill 
the valley below me 
the blue sky above me 
my dream was so real 
I could not hear 
the hum of the highway 
or the drums of the foundry 
pounding out steel

I didn't need no money 
I didn't need no time 
I didn't need nothing 
but my own piece of mind 
and to know that 
a voice like a whisper is bound to be heard 
for just one moment 
I'm the king of the world

for just one moment 
I'm the king of the world 
so I close my eyes 
I let the power defeat me 
because the real world can't free me 
from this dirty old town 
where the four winds blow 
I send my troubles rolling 
since the world just kept turning 
I let it go round

see I took it all in 
like time takes forever 
in a dream that you never 
believed would come true 
then i gave it away 
I just had to surrender 
man I just can't remember 
when I felt so good
