Tears for Fears - 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(ooh)

They say his famous final words

Came from the heart of the man

He made his bed on love denied

He played Jeckyll and Hyde till the day he died (ooh) a(ooh)

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

(guitar solo)

(YEAHHHHHH!!)

They say his famous final words

Came from the heart of man(oho)

I made my bed on love denied

Now I ain't gonna sleep tonight(aaaahh)

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 (ooh yeah ooh yeah)

This is the(ooh yeah ooh yeah) year of the knife (ooh yeah ooh yeah)

This is(ooh yeah ooh yeah) the year of the knife(ooh yeah ooh yeah)

This is(ooh yeah ooh yeah) the year of the knife(ooh yeah ooh yeah)

This is the(ooh yeah ooh yeah) year of the (To Late!)knife(To Late!)

This is the year of the (To Late!)knife(To Late!)(To Late!)

Too Late, much too late

Too late for the young gun

(drum role)

This is the year of the knife
