Mister Kingdom Lyrics

Electric Light Orchestra Mister Kingdom

Daylight comes to those who live
But those who die, they never see the sun come
Shining through their window pane
They pass away
Silly girl to be a fool
You didn't play the golden rule
'Cause once you're through with one world
There's another waiting there
CHORUS
Help me, such a lonely soul
In dreams
To leave behind the world
Mr. Kingdom, help me please
To find the rainbow's end
Looking from this empty room
The corridors of endless gloom
Go crawling through the night
To meet the dawn that's on its way
Oh, to sleep, per-chance to dream
To live again those joyous scenes
The laughter and the follies
That are locked inside my head
CHORUS
I can dream of flying high
Above the city's cares and never be afraid of anyone
'Cause there ain't no one there
CHORUS
