King of Fools
Delirious Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothing in this world can bring me
Peace and madness
They've become the very best of friends
Walking with you
Blindly follow out upon the
Water runs down
I'll live for you and try to be the king of fools
I'll long for you and walk before the king of all
Joy has found me
Living life without you would be
Hell or heaven
Soon we'll find the greatest king of fools
I'll live for you and try to be the king of fools
I'll long just to walk before the king of fools
