CAN YOU GUESS WHAT I'M THINKING OF
WHERE'S SOMEONE THAT I CAN LOVE?
I JUST DON'T KNOW WHERE TO START,
I'M THE KING OF BROKEN HEARTS.

I WAS WAITING FOR THE BELLS TO RING,
MY LOVE FOR HER KEEPS LINGERING.
PRAYING THAT SHE'D WEAR MY RING,
WAITING FOR THE CROWD TO SING.

I'M THE KING OF BROKEN HEARTS,
I'VE LOST BEFORE I EVER START TO LOVE AGAIN.
I'M THE KING OF BROKEN HEARTS,
I'D GIVE IT ALL AWAY TO FIND A FRIEND AGAIN,
AGAIN.

WHERE'S THE DREAM I HAD BEFORE?
SHE JUST WALKED RIGHT OUT THE DOOR.
I WANT HER BACK AND NOTHING MORE,
HER NOTE FELL ON THE BEDROOM FLOOR.

I'M THE KING OF BROKEN HEARTS,
I'VE LOST BEFORE I EVER START TO LOVE AGAIN.
I'M THE KING OF BROKEN HEARTS,
I'D GIVE IT ALL AWAY TO FIND A FRIEND AGAIN.

A HEART'S NO GOOD WHEN IT'S BEEN BROKEN,
WORDS OF LOVE ARE OFTEN SPOKEN,
MY TEARS FALL LIKE JEWELS FROM A CROWN.

LOOK HOW FAST THE TIDE CAN TURN,
SOME PEOPLE LIVE BUT NEVER LEARN.
I CAN MAKE A BRAND NEW START
LIVING IN A LAND OF BROKEN HEARTS. (broken hearts)

YEAH, I'M THE KING OF BROKEN HEARTS,
I'VE LOST BEFORE I EVER START TO LOVE AGAIN.
I'M THE KING OF BROKEN HEARTS,
I'D GIVE IT ALL AWAY TO FIND A FRIEND AGAIN.
I'M THE KING OF BROKEN HEARTS,
I'VE LOST BEFORE I EVER START TO LOVE AGAIN,
AGAIN.
