Now everything's gone my way
I'm a king among men
I did what the people say
With the sword not the pen
All of my life, all of my life, all of my life, I gave it away
All of my life, all of my life, all of my life, I gave it away
Threw it all away
I constitute all that's left
The brave and the wild
All gone to seek endless rest
Their sleep unspoiled
And now the water falls, the mountain calls
I'd give you all of these
For now the war is won and I am done
No use am I in peace, peace
Now at last I can understand
Why I am alone
I recognise not this land
My eyes have grown old
They've grown old
