Lyrics: Chicago. Chicago XXX. King Of Might Have Been.

What have I done?
And why do people run away
From what they really want?
She, she was the one
I know it now, just like a blind man
Feels the setting sun

Once upon a time I had
Everything I ever wanted
And everything I'd need
The more she tried to give me
The more I took for granted
Her majesty and I can't believe

Oh, it's really over now
And I've got to live without
The love I'll never have again
If this is what losing means
Well, then I've lost everything
Now I'm the king of might have been

I'm all alone
With a hundred percent of nothing now
Just a fool upon his throne
She's, she's moving on
She's gonna be somebody's everything
And I hope that he knows

That all she ever needed
Was the chance to be completed
And to feel the light of love
What should've been, what could've been
Doesn't matter now
She's history and I can't believe

Oh, it's really over now
And I've got to live without
The love I'll never have again
If this is what losing means
Then I've lost everything
Now I'm the king of might have, king of might have been

If I could do it all again, I would never let it end
I'd fight for us if I just had one more chance

Oh, it's really over now
And I've got to live without
The love I'll never have again
If this is what losing means
Then I've lost everything
Now I'm the king of might have, king of might have
King of might have been
