when love comes tumbling

The Waterboys

Iââ?¬â?¢ve had money, and Iââ?¬â?¢ve lost it
seen an ocean, nearly crossed it
I have been to another world and I have returned
and for every high joy a hard lesson learnt

But when love comes tumbling down
I will wear a crown

Iââ?¬â?¢ve had power, Iââ?¬â?¢ve used and abused it
tasted glory, I have wooed and refused it
Tried to live in a sacred way, I did and I did not
and for everything Iââ?¬â?¢ve lost, thereââ?¬â?¢s been something else Iââ?¬â?¢ve got

But when love comes tumbling down
I will wear a crown

Iââ?¬â?¢ve been up and Iââ?¬â?¢ve been down
sometimes almost level with the ground
Once in every hundred years I can
still remember who I am

Been in danger, I tried to face it
I saw a mirage, and for seven years I chased it
Iââ?¬â?¢m not through with my changes,
Iââ?¬â?¢ve got a long way still to run
Iââ?¬â?¢m going to play this show even if nobody comes

But when love comes tumbling down
when love comes tumbling down
When love comes tumbling down
I will wear a crown
