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
