Lyrics: American Pearl. If We Were Kings.

Wait, if you could only wait for me, I'd come around
And take whatever light you'd shed, then we might come around
Come what may, if we were kings for a day could we, would we
Light the way and the pain, I'll take away, could it be, yeah

How long, I say not long

Light all of their torches so they could see
And wed carry their crosses if we were kings

Straight, if you can just stay straight with me, I'd stay around
Troubled fate, I can be your saving grace, lost and found
Come what may, if we were kings for the day, could we, would we
Fly away, if we were kings for a day could we, guarantee, yeah

How long, I say not long

Light all of their torches so they could see
And we'd carry their crosses if we were kings
Give away the moon and the stars for free
We'd carry their crosses if we were kings

How long, I say not long, I say not long

Light all of their torches so they could see
We'd carry their crosses if we were kings
We'd light up the sky when we were free
We'd carry their crosses, if we were kings

If you could only wait for me, I'd come around
