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 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 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 All of my life 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 All of my life I gave it away Ooh, lord, I threw it all away Now at last I can understand Why I am alone I recognise not this land My eyes have grown old They've grown old All of my life All of my life All of my life All of my life Well, I pushed All of my life All of my life All of my life All of my life I gave it away Ooh, I threw it all away 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 All of my life
