King of the ocean, riding the seven seas
But every thought of you is always on the breeze
Every thought of you is always on the breeze
Left to find Kingdoms but leaving a kingdom behind
But every thought of you is always on my mind
Every thought of you is always on my mind
Oh, your memory's stronger than a thousand ships of war to call me home
And though it's glory I'm chasing it's from glory I run
Those glory days are done
But I won't break, even when the earth around me shakes
When the things that have built us up have brought us down
Sometimes you have to leave the things you love for love
Your siren's sigh, your whisper always louder than your cry
But your memory lives long beyond goodbye
Oh, now I know that I have to leave and can't come back for you
Oh, remember the winters, light hearts and the lonely trees
They're the memories I'll always keep with me
They're the memories I'll always keep with me
The wide world between us, still see you with each young sun
But now I have to tell myself those days are done
Now I have to tell myself those days are done
Oh, your memory's stronger than a thousand ships of war to call me home
And though it's glory I'm chasing it's from glory I run
Those glory days are done
But I won't break, even when the earth around me shakes
When the things that have built us up have brought us down
Sometimes you have to leave the things you love for love
Your siren's sigh, your whisper always louder than your cry
But your memory lives long beyond goodbye
Oh, now I know that I have to leave and can't come back for you
