Kings - Dandy

I was ready to jet, yet

I couldn’t turn around

And walk the other way

To the runway off the ground

The look on your face

Man, it was pulling' at my heart

Cuz I knew that if I left you

Everything would fall apart

You were getting sicker

And I just couldn’t breathe

But I knew that if I loved you

It was best for me to leave

Make somethin' of myself

In spite of everything

And build a life where we

Need not worry bout the means

Yeah, I was runnin', runnin'

Runnin' from the pain

Runnin' for my life

Cuz I was sick of playing games

This fighting you to save you

Was a bunch of wasted time

Broken dreams that kept on

Just on itchin' at my spine

And now I’m on the road

But I won’t be turning back

You’re still my number one

And I know we’re all we have

And no matter where we travel

Know you’ll never be alone

If I lose myself in transit

I’ll always make it home

We’re gonna be kings

With the world on a string

And we can sing

With a heart on fire

With bright light dreams

Chasing simple things

One day I tell you

We’re gonna be kings

With the world on a string

And we can sing

With a heart on fire

Yeah, with bright light dreams

Chasing simple things

One day I tell you

We’re gonna be kings

We were sittin' on a toolbox

Chevy truck, jacked up

Talkin' bout our future

With the stereo turned up

Reminiscing of the many

Blessings in disguise

Now we hold our own

When we’re talkin' to the wise

Truth be told, man

You’re bound to lose your stride

The rug is gonna trip you

On a beaten, bumpy ride

But you gotta find it in you

To remember why you tried

Remember whos your reason

The reason you survive

And spend whatever’s left

So you can run that extra mile

And make it through another day

And force another smile

I had it figured out

But I had so much to learn

Everything that I was sure of

Was enlightened as it burned

You can’t rewrite your memories

No matter how you change

The ones who loved you then

Are the lovers that remain

And no matter where we travel

Know you’ll never be alone

I can lose myself in transit

But I’ll always make it home

We’re gonna be kings

With the world on a string

And we can sing

With a heart on fire

With bright light dreams

Chasing simple things

One day I tell you

We’re gonna be kings

With the world on a string

And we can sing

With a heart on fire

Yeah, with bright light dreams

Chasing simple things

One day I tell you

We’re gonna be kings

We’re gonna be kings

One day, one day

We’re gonna be kings

With the world on a string (With the world on a string)

And we can sing

With a heart on fire

With bright light dreams

Chasing simple things

One day I tell you (One day I tell you)

We’re gonna be kings

With the world on a string (With the world on a string)

And we can sing

With a heart on fire

Yeah, with bright light dreams

Chasing simple things

One day I tell you (One day I tell you)

We’re gonna be kings

We’re gonna be kings
