But youre only king for a day
It doesn't matter to which God you pray
Precious time is slipping away
It doesn't matter what route you take
Sooner or later the hearts going to break
No rhyme or reason, no master plan
No nirvana, no promised land
Because, precious time is slipping away
Yuu know youre only king for a day
It doesn't matter to which God you pray
Precious time is slipping away
Say que sera, whatever will be
But then I keep on searching for immortality
Shes so beautiful but shes going to die some day
Everything in life just passes away
But, precious time is slipping away
You know shes only queen for a day
It doesn't matter to which God you pray
Precious time is slipping away
Well this world is cruel with its twists and turns
Well the fires still in me and the passion burns
I love a medley til the day I die
Til hell freezes over and the rivers run dry
Precious time is slipping away
You know shes only queen for a day
It doesn't matter to which God you pray because
Precious time is slipping away
Precious time is slipping away
You know youre only king for a day
It doesn't matter to which God you pray
Precious time is slipping away
Precious time is slipping away
You know youre only king for a day
It doesn't matter to which God you pray because
Precious time is slipping away
Precious time is slipping away But youre only king for a day It doesn't matter to which God you pray Precious time is slipping away It doesn't matter what route you take Sooner or later the hearts going to break No rhyme or reason, no master plan No nirvana, no promised land Because, precious time is slipping away Yuu know youre only king for a day It doesn't matter to which God you pray Precious time is slipping away Say que sera, whatever will be But then I keep on searching for immortality Shes so beautiful but shes going to die some day Everything in life just passes away But, precious time is slipping away You know shes only queen for a day It doesn't matter to which God you pray Precious time is slipping away Well this world is cruel with its twists and turns Well the fires still in me and the passion burns I love a medley til the day I die Til hell freezes over and the rivers run dry Precious time is slipping away You know shes only queen for a day It doesn't matter to which God you pray because Precious time is slipping away Precious time is slipping away You know youre only king for a day It doesn't matter to which God you pray Precious time is slipping away Precious time is slipping away You know youre only king for a day It doesn't matter to which God you pray because Precious time is slipping away Explain Request ×
