With one light on in one room, I know you're up when I get home
With one small step upon the stair, I know your look when I get there
If you were a king up there on your throne,
would you be wise enough to let me go?
For this queen you think you own
wants to be a hunter again, I want to see the world alone again
To take a chance on life again -- so let me go
The unread book and painful look, the TV's on, the sound is down
One long pause, then you begin, oh look what the cat's brought in
If you were a king up there on your throne,
would you be wise enough to let me go?
For this queen you think you own
wants to be a hunter again, I want to see the world alone again
To take a chance on life again, so let me go, let me leave
For the crown you've placed upon my head feels too heavy now
And I don't know what to say to you but I'll smile anyhow
And all the time I'm thinking, thinking
(x3) I want to be a hunter again, I want to see the world alone again
To take a chance on life again, so let me go
My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I got out of bed
at all
The morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at
all
And even if I could it'd all be grey, but your picture
on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad...
I drank too much last night, got bills to pay, my head
just feels in pain
I missed the bus and there'll be hell today, I'm late
for work again
And even if I'm there, they'll all imply that I might
not last the day
And then you call me and it's not so bad, it's not so
bad...
And I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my
life
Oh just to be with you is having the best day of my life
Push the door, I'm home at last and I'm soaking through
and through
Then you handed me a towel and all I see is you
And even if my house falls down now, I wouldn't have a
clue
Because you're near me...
And I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my
life
Oh just to be with you is having the best day of my life
