King of Mine Lyrics by Shelley Segal

An Easy Escape

2014

[Intro]
Da da, da dum da da da
Da do da, da da do dum da da
[Verse 1]
You could mistake him for a pauper
From the stains on his shirt
To the creases and torn endings on his pants
You could take him for just a stoner
From the paleness of his kept-in skin
To the black rings around his bright blue eyes
But you would have to be blind
This man is a king oh
King of mine
With arms that could be described as underweight
He manages to keep outside the cold
From those arms beautiful creations will unfold
If you could just see through my eyes
This man is a king oh
King of mine
[Chorus]
And even though he won't
Treat me like a queen
There is something in this man
That's not in anyone I've seen
And even though I'm banished
Even though he set me free
He will always be a king to me, he
Da dum da, da dum da da da
Da do da, da, da dum da da da da
[Verse 2]
Against the armies of the ignorant
He stands tall
For the fortress of his mind is sturdier
Than any city wall
And like the rest of us
He places the laws of his kingdom above
But unlike the rest of us
He would never break them
No, not even for love
All these things combine
He is a king of mine
[Chorus]
And even though he won't
Treat me like a queen
There is something in this man
That's not in anyone I've seen
And even though I'm banished
Even though he set me free
He will always be a king to me, he
Da dum da, da dum da da da
Da do da, da, da dum da da da
Da dum da, da dum da da dum
Da do da, da, da dum da da da
