Mr. King lyrics
Song information
Artist: Nerina Pallot Album: Fires
Lyrics
Good days, bad days, I've had a few of those Same old story-i know how this song goes At least I did, but now I'm not so sure Nothing's in its place, nothing's certain anymore Birds fly, trees sway, why can't I be like that? Happy knowing what I am, in fact and leaving be? But truth has been obscured I am only human and I'm always wanting more
And the world is a place and they say it's on our side But I wonder, is there comfort in those moments when we die? Now I see, mr. king, this was in the books you gave me Which I read, disbelieving, thinking poets are depressed Oh, mr. king, I have changed, I confess
Oh, those good days I remember well Tape on windows, wintertime was hell But it was fun, and people there were kind There was good work to be done, and I learnt to think my time
And the world was a good place, and in days were where I lived I imagined life had purpose and I'd something good to give Mr. cave played along on the battered hallway piano Oh, every love song a secret to be shared Hey, mr. king, how I wish I was back there
Now, I've got 10 things lined up on a shelf Reasons to be cheerful for myself I don't know why you're showing me the sky You say you see heaven I see hell, but want to try
And the world is a place, and I pray it's on my side But I'd find greater comfort if I just lay down and died I don't know what's become of a girl who once knew sunshine What's become of a girl who knew sorrow but was strong? Oh, mr. king you were right, all along Mr. king you were right Oh, mr. king, you were right-i was wrong
