Lyrics for All the King's Horses

All the king's horses And all the king's men Couldn't put our two hearts Together again We sat on the wall of happiness We sat on the wall of love We sat on the wall of security So high above With his arms all around me It was like a fairy tale Two people so in love Tell me how could it fail The wall started shaking I heard love cried out Happiness is given away Security is coming down He fell, I fell And all there is left to tell Is all the king's horses All the king's men Couldn't put our two hearts Together again All the king's horses All the king's men Couldn't put our two hearts Together again The walls started shaking I heard love crying out Happiness is giving away Security is coming down He fell, I fell And all there is left to tell Is all the king's horses All the king's men Couldn't put our two hearts Together again Couldn't put our two hearts Together again Couldn't put our two hearts Together again Couldn't put our two hearts
