Willie Nelson - The Winning Hand

King of a Lonely Castle

The courtyard is empty, and the drawbridge is high
My jester is singing his saddest goodbye
I'm king of a lonely castle
'Cause the queen of my heart is gone

My chargers are searching the far countryside
Her ladies in waiting, their lonely hearts cry
I'm king of a lonely castle
'Cause the queen of my heart is gone

But I don't really have a castle
And I don't have a throne to ascend
But I did have a queen, now she's gone and it seems
That it's best to pretend with a storybook end
That I'm king of a lonely castle
'Cause the queen of my heart is gone

My banner is flying, my love from the tower
Proclaiming to heaven, I die every hour
I'm king of a lonely castle
'Cause the queen of my heart is gone
I'm king of a lonely castle
'Cause the queen of my heart is gone
