Great Big Sea - When I Am King Lyrics
Wake up, without a care. Your head's not heavy, your conscience clearSins are all forgiven here, yours and mineFear has gone without a traceIt's the perfect time, it's the perfect placeNothing hurting. Nothing sore. No one suffers anymore,The doctor's found a simple cure.Just in timeChorusAll these things if I were King would all appear around meThe world will sing when I am KingThe world will sing when I am KingAh she walks right in, she don't even knock,it's the girl you lost to the high school jockShe shuts the door turns the lock, and takes your hand.She says she always felt a fool, for picking the Captain over youShe wonders if you miss her, says she always told her sisterNow that you're the best damn kisserThat she's ever hadBridgeDaylight waits to shine until the moment you awakenSo you never miss the dawnNo question, now, you know which road you're takingLights all green, the radio plays just the perfect songWell, the war's been won. All the fights are foughtYou find yourself in just the spotIn a place where everybody's got a song to sing.Just like the final movie scene. The prince will find his perfect queenThe hero always saves the world. The villains get what they deserveThe boy will always get the girlWhen I am King
