Crown — текст песни (The Waterboys)

I`ve had money, and I`ve lost it
seen an ocean, nearly crossed it
I have been to another world and I have returned
and for every high joy a hard lesson learnt

But when love comes tumbling down
I will wear a crown

I`ve had power, I`ve used and abused it
tasted glory, I have wooed and refused it
Tried to live in a sacred way, I did and I did not
and for everything I`ve lost, there`s been something else I`ve got

But when love comes tumbling down
I will wear a crown

I`ve been up and I`ve been down
sometimes almost level with the ground
Once in every hundred years I can
still remember who I am

Been in danger, I tried to face it
I saw a mirage, and for seven years I chased it
I`m not through with my changes,
I`ve got a long way still to run
I`m going to play this show even if nobody comes

But when love comes tumbling down
when love comes tumbling down
When love comes tumbling down
I will wear a crown
