Lyrics
The Once And Future Queen
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Someone's gonna hold your hand and everything will click
Touch you in some unknown way that finally does the trick
Pull you in a fairytale where you were meant to be
Someone, well, someone won't be me
Someone's out there praying for the day that you walk in
And happy ever after can finally begin
Someone who'll stop at nothing to give you all you need
Someone, but, someone won't be me
And that's okay
I never really loved you anyway
At least not unconditionally
Like subjects love the once and future queen
If I thought I was good for you, if I thought this could work
I'd reach a little island and pull you back to earth
But the man you're really looking for, want in all your dreams
Someone, that someone won't be me
And that's okay
You never really loved me anyway
Not enough to meet me halfway
Or love something, you can only take
And that's okay
I never really loved you anyway
At least not unconditionally
Like subjects love the once and future queen
