TUNESMITH TUESDAY - "King of Nothing" by Seals and Crofts

King Of Nothing

When I was 17, 

I dreamed of being king

And having everything I wanted.

But that was long ago and 

my dreams did not unfold, 

so I'm still the King of Nothing.

When I was 17, 

I dreamed I gave a ring to 

a pretty queen and then I held her.

But that was slumber's fault for 

I have no love at all, and 

I'm still the King of Nothing.

If I could rule, I'd dance my cares away, 

find romance everyday.

I wouldn't have to listen to this poor fool say,

"I'm the King, 

   I'm the King, 

     I'm the King of Nothing."

If I could rule, I'd dance my cares away, 

find romance everyday.

I wouldn't have to listen to this poor fool say,

"I'm the King, 

   I'm the King, 

     I'm the King of Nothing."
