Year of the Knife lyrics

Hallelujah, the king is dead

He said "Love was the knife"

And now he'll dream some magic queen

Might try and save his life

They say his famous final words

Came from the heart of the man

He made his bed on love denied

Played Jekyll and Hyde till the day he died

Too late for the young gun

To lead a simple life

Too late for the young gun I said

This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife

This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife

This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife

See the mountains crumble

Feel the fire go cold

Summer will turn to winter

Love will turn to stone

They say his famous final words

Came from the heart of the man

I made my bed on love denied

Too late for the young gun

To lead a simple life

Too late for the young gun

Sun and the moon

Sun and the moon

The wind and the rain

This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife

This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife

This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife

This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife

This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife

This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife

This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife

Too late, much too late

Too late for the young gun, this is the year of the knife
