When a duckling notices it's lost from its flock
It rushes over the glittering water in panic
So in its movements only tremendous grief
Because it would have liked to try its wings for once
You wander through the rooms without peace
And your every glance tells of yearning
You're poor, homeless, you're lonely, bereft
And your every glance tells of yearning
(Chorus:)
But just when you think all hope has disappeared
I'll make you a king
And then you'll find that, that great love
So beautiful, strong, I'll make you a king
In vain you look for peace of mind while doing useless things
When your every movement radiates yearning
You're forlorn, the most forlorn, you're poor, the hungriest
And your every movement radiates yearning
(Chorus x2)
I'll make you a king
(I'll make you a king)
I'll make you a king
