King Rides By

If time had a place

And space for your past

Like a little novel

I wanted to read again and againWould I be in your novel?

Would I begin and end in it, if I had a place

And space for your little boy eyes?Could you really believe?

I certainly dare you

I do not want to scare you anymoreOh, what a fuss when the king rides by

Oh, what a fuss when the king rides

Straight through my heart

Straight through my lifeNeeding love more than you'll ever know

If I kissed and touched your hand

Million things, I will never understandOh, what a fuss when the king trades in

Oh, what a fuss when the king trades

Oh love, my love for someone else's handNeeding love more than you'll ever know

You don't miss your water

You don't miss your water

'Till your well is gone
