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

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

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
