King Rides By Lyrics
If time had a place
And space for your past
Like a little novel
I wanted to read again and again
Would I be in your novel
Would I begin and end in it?
If I had a place and a space
For your little boy eyes
Could you really believe?
I certainly dare you
I do not want to scare you
Anymore
Oh, what a fuss when the king rides by
Oh, what a fuss when the king rides
Straight through my heart
Straight through my life
I need your love more than you'll ever know
If I kissed and touched your hand
A million things I will never understand
Oh, what a fuss when the king trades in
Oh, what a fuss when king trades
Oh, love, my love, for someone else's hand
Need your love more than you'll ever know
You don't miss your water
You don't miss your water
'Till your well is gone
And space for your past
Like a little novel
I wanted to read again and again
Would I be in your novel
Would I begin and end in it?
For your little boy eyes
Could you really believe?
I certainly dare you
I do not want to scare you
Anymore
Oh, what a fuss when the king rides
Straight through my heart
Straight through my life
A million things I will never understand
Oh, what a fuss when the king trades in
Oh, what a fuss when king trades
Need your love more than you'll ever know
You don't miss your water
'Till your well is gone

This is another one of my favorite Chan Marshall songs.. ahh more people need to listen to Cat Power!!!
The emotion she sings with in this song...just wow. I've been listening to Cat Power for some time now and I never cease to feel a shiver when I hear this song. More people really should listen to Cat Power.
fucking beautiful.
I think this is one of the sweetest love songs.
