Prince of Shattered Dreams Songtext
von Robin Trower

I walk through the clouds of a land no one knows
Look back to the warmth of a past so free
I stand like the ghost from a place no one goes
All life drained away now you are gone from me

We played for the gold heart, ran to the line
Failed by this old heart each time

No crown for the prince of shattered dreams
No streets will resound to my name
Your love tried to fill every in-between
Now someone else will warm to your flame
Warm to your flame


No bird from these ashes will be rising
My mind like a home drowned in the flood
Shadows cast across this room I hide in
No fire will thaw this chill from my blood

I thought of the last words I did not say
And still your face turns away

No crown for the prince of shattered dreams
No streets will resound to my name
Your love tried to fill every in-between
Now someone else will warm to your flame
Warm to your flame

No crown for the prince of shattered dreams
No streets will resound to my name
Your love tried to fill every in-between
Now someone else will warm to your flame
Warm to your flame
