Great Big Sea - When I Am King lyrics

Wake up, without a care. Your head's not heavy, conscience clear Sins are all forgiven here, yours and mine Fear has gone without a trace It's the perfect time, it's the perfect place Nothing hurting. Nothing sore. No one suffers anymore, The doctor's found a simple cure. Just in time [Chorus] All these things if I were King would all appear around me The world will sing when I am King The world will sing when I am King She walks right in she don't even knock. It's the girl you lost to the high school jock She shuts the door and turns the lock, and takes your hand. She says she always felt a fool, for picking the Captain over you She wonders if you miss her, says she always told her sister That you're the best damn kisser That she's ever had [Bridge] Daylight waits to shine until the moment you awaken So you never miss the dawn No question, now, you know which road you're taking Lights all green, the radio plays just the perfect song Well, the war's been won. All the fights are fought You find yourself in just the spot It's a place where everybody's got a song to sing. Just like the final movie scene. The prince will find his perfect queen The hero always saves the world. The villains get what they deserve The boy will always get the girl When I am King
