A featherbed to rest my head
On roses would I lay
A full moon would glow every night
And summer would be every day
We'd dance and sing all afternoon
And rain would wash troubles away
Every wish would be granted for me
If I could be queen for a day
The finest horse, the color of night
The likes you never did see
Silver stars and firelight
And candles would burn just for me
We'd dance and sing all afternoon
And rain would wash troubles away
Every wish would be granted for me
If I could be queen for a day
Oh, but to be the golden one
Oh, just for one moment in the sun
And when the night grew cold and dark
And worries ran too deep
Angels would surround my bed
And carry me off to sleep
We'd dance and sing all afternoon
And rain would wash troubles away
Every wish would be granted for me
If I could be queen for a day
Every wish would be granted for me
If I could be queen for a day
If I could be queen for a day
If I could be queen for a day
