Verse 1: I could be king of kings ; wear a crown and all the things I'd want I'd never need. I'd be an ace in an aeroplane and every year I'd fly to Spain. If I could get the nerve to plant the seed. Chorus: Oh, tell me how to say goodbye. I see her face in myself. Why, tell me why I made her cry If only had my mind on something else. Verse 2: Captain of the submarine beneath the icebergs never seen. A hero with a medal for ev'ryday. I find me fame,reach the top. I keep on pushing never stop.
