He struggled so hard to be king Working night and day Dreaming of only one thing Never a holiday Somewhere along the way He forgot she was only a girl Now his kingdom has fallen And it's really quite a tragic tale Cause he built a castle to harbor his queen But the queen claimed he built her a jail He struggled so hard to be king He wanted everything He built her a house by the sea Just to keep her in Somewhere along the way He forgot she needed a friend Now his kingdom has fallen And it's really quite a tragic tale Cause he built a castle to harbor his queen And the queen claimed he built her a jail It happened so quickly before he could know She was gone, far gone Far from the castle, the diamonds and things She had worn to the ball There was a note that she carefully wrote Signed it best wishes to all Oh you struggled so hard to be king Working night and day Dreaming of only one thing, never a holiday Somewhere along the way You forgot that I needed a man When they found him they took him back where he belonged And his family and friends saw him annually And they say it's a shame what's become of the king
