[verse]
a story about a man with a smile on his face.
because that's what everyone expects from him when hes in a place.
he spends his life on trying to make people happy and smile.
but all the time he's broken inside and he has been for a while.
[chorus]
he's sitting there with everyone like a king sits on a throne,
he's standing in a crowd of people but still he feels alone.
he tries to smile and make those happy every single day.
but still he sits and cries with noone to wipe his tears away.
[verse]
he has a loving family no one can love him more.
a mother who looks after him someone that he adores.
She councils him and she loves him this he has no doubt.
the special lady in his life he could never be without.
[chorus]
he's sitting there with everyone like a king sits on a throne,
he's standing in a crowd of people but still he feels alone.
he tries to smile and make those happy every single day.
but still he sits and cries with no one to wipe his tears away.
[verse]
he watches his sister bring up her children a happy family.
he sits at home he's all alone thinking there's no one there for me .
no hugs and no kisses to comfort him in bed tonight.
it's just another quiet silent lonely night tonight.
[chorus]
he's sitting there with everyone like a king sits on a throne,
he's standing in a crowd of people but still he feels alone.
he tries to smile and make those happy every single day.
But he sits and cries with noone to wipe his tears away.
[verse]
there have been some dark times, he thought he could not go on.
he's not quite sure where his life is and where did it go wrong.
WAll his friends have turned away,
is there reason now to live.
All he wants is happiness with the love he has to give.
[chorus]
he's sitting there with everyone like a king sits on a throne
is standing in a crowd of people but still he feels alone.
he tries to smile and make those happy every single day.
but still he sits and cries with no one to wipe his tears away.
but still he sits and cries with noone to wipe his tears away.
