Icehouse - Kingdom Lyrics
That just comes and goesIt's not so specialShe watches the birdsShat rest on a ledgeOutside her roomThe wallpaper old and fadedA crack in the window paneThe radio just keeps playingPlaying that same old songShe smiles to herselfThey think that I'm strangeThey say I'm a dreamerBut I don't complainThough I don't have muchTo call my ownShe's not a movie star, noShe's not a beauty queenShe'll tell you it doesn't matterShe's not the only oneShe says, "I know a placeWhere I keep the best of thingsI'm not gonna waitFor my piece of heaven""And where there's a roadLeads to the promised landI just turn the keyKey to the kingdom"She stares at the pageOf a new magazineThe morning papersShe walks into townAnd catches a showIf she can find the timeShe's not a movie star, noShe's not a beauty queenShe'll tell you it doesn't matterShe's not the only oneShe says, "I know a placeWhere I keep the best of thingsI'm not gonna waitFor my piece of heaven""And where there's a roadLeads to the promised landI just turn the keyKey to the kingdom"I know a placeWhere I keep the best of thingsI'm not gonna waitFor my piece of heavenWhere there's a roadIt leads to the promised landI just turn the keyKey to the kingdomI know a placeWhere I keep the best of thingsI'm not gonna waitFor my piece of heavenAnd where there's a roadLeads to the promised landI just turn the keyKey to the kingdomI know a placeWhere I keep the best of thingsI'm not gonna waitFor my piece of heavenWhere there's a roadIt leads to the promised landI just turn the keyKey to the kingdom
