"Kings And Queens" lyrics
"Kings And Queens"
I'm remembering the day, I was just a girl
Thinking how cool this is, "My man is calling from jail!"
I know I was naïve, a fool in love
And looking back it was doomed to fail, life was too tough
Feels like a million years ago
(But I don't look back, 'cause I wanna go forward)
Great season, stolen alcohol
We were so young
We could have been kings and queens
We could have been anything
We could have gone far in the world, when I was your girl
Two diamonds from the gutter
We could have been kings and queens
We could have lived all our dreams
If I could have set you free, I would, believe me
But we didn't get it right this time
Maybe in another life (life, life, life, life, life, life)
Maybe in another life (life, life, life, life, life, life)
Maybe in another life (life, life, life, life, life, life)
Maybe in another life (life, life, life, life, life, life)
Come to your mama's house, I'd stay too late
I get in trouble and they're sending out the search party
I think you ended it, 'bout fourteen times
Just for the thrill of gettin' back together after the fight
Feels like a million years ago
(But I don't look back, 'cause I wanna go forward)
Great season, stolen alcohol
We were so young
We could have been kings and queens
We could have been anything
We could have gone far in the world, when I was your girl
Two diamonds from the gutter
We could have been kings and queens
We could have lived all our dreams
If I could have set you free, I would, believe me
But we didn't get it right this time
Maybe in another life (life, life, life, life, life, life)
Maybe in another life (life, life, life, life, life, life)
Maybe in another life (life, life, life, life, life, life)
Maybe in another life (life, life, life, life, life, life)
And I don't look back, 'cause I wanna go forward
But I hope you're well, got what you wanted
You still cross my mind, are you OK?
I pray you'll get it right next time
So maybe in another life (life, life, life, life, life, life)
Maybe in another life (life, life, life, life, life, life)
Maybe in another life (life, life, life, life, life, life)
Maybe we'll be better next time (life, life, life, life, life, life)
We could have been kings and queens
We could have been anything
We could have gone far in the world, when I was your girl
Two diamonds from the gutter
We could have been kings and queens
We could have lived all our dreams
If I could have set you free, I would, believe me
But we didn't get it right this time
Maybe in another life

Life was like a hustle in a school yard

Sigrid - "Don't Kill My Vibe" You shut me down, you like the control
You speak to me like I'm a child

Dannii Minogue & Tina Arena - "Sorrento Moon" (La luna de Sorrento...)
You had me singing all my praises
And I, I just let myself get swept away
And it's true, baby
We held heaven in our hands for days
You wait a long time
For something wild...
Sarah Close - "Caught Up" Methamphetamine, I'm dressed like a beauty queen
Two step pacing and I'm too intoxicated
You're trying to break us down, wish you wouldn't stick around
I wanna make it home and I'd love to be alone...
