The Waterboys - Crown lyrics

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
