One of those days
That just comes and goes
It's not so specialShe watches the birds
Shat rest on a ledge
Outside her roomThe wallpaper old and faded
A crack in the window pane
The radio just keeps playing
Playing that same old songShe smiles to herself
They think that I'm strange
They say I'm a dreamerBut I don't complain
Though I don't have much
To call my ownShe's not a movie star, no
She's not a beauty queen
She'll tell you it doesn't matter
She's not the only oneShe says, "I know a place
Where I keep the best of things
I'm not gonna wait
For my piece of heaven""And where there's a road
Leads to the promised land
I just turn the key
Key to the kingdom"She stares at the page
Of a new magazine
The morning papersShe walks into town
And catches a show
If she can find the timeShe's not a movie star, no
She's not a beauty queen
She'll tell you it doesn't matter
She's not the only oneShe says, "I know a place
Where I keep the best of things
I'm not gonna wait
For my piece of heaven""And where there's a road
Leads to the promised land
I just turn the key
Key to the kingdom"I know a place
Where I keep the best of things
I'm not gonna wait
For my piece of heavenWhere there's a road
It leads to the promised land
I just turn the key
Key to the kingdomI know a place
Where I keep the best of things
I'm not gonna wait
For my piece of heavenAnd where there's a road
Leads to the promised land
I just turn the key
Key to the kingdomI know a place
Where I keep the best of things
I'm not gonna wait
For my piece of heavenWhere there's a road
It leads to the promised land
I just turn the key
Key to the kingdom
