Lyrics

The king he said it's time that you found out on your own
Not everyobody lives like we have for so long
We've been hiding here on this mountaintop so high
That I've got to wonder if we'll fit down there

CHORUS: And he said "My crime, this time
Was feeling too much to ever hurt someone
Who I see, who seems so much like me
But it'll be fine sometime we'll go sailing out over the ocean
And we'll laugh someday when you take care of me."

The king he said it's time that you found something of your own
Not borrowed and not stolen, like we had for so long
The king and me we tried to find some common ground
And always made sure that something got in our way

CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
Married in the winter, in the springtime came a son
Will this country soon be overrun?

SOLO

BRIDGE

The king he said goodbye and we knew the next move was mine
We turned to look around and started walking down

CHORUS
