lyrics

smile to see her there with a sense of life
me i don't know, my eyes glow but i got no wrong from right

the king was so bold, turned his girl to gold
and one night in the moonlight he gave his girl a kiss and left for paradise
and she said take me with you, take me with you im still here
take me with you im still here

and i gloat to hear them scream the golden girl is still our queen
and as i, as i look down, the royal sun blinks off her crown as she says
take me with you, take me with you im still here
take me with you i'm still here

ya some days when time goes by seems like shes dreaming about the sky
but i'm up so high, i hope she can see me i hope she can miss me my queen
one day you'll fly and you'll say

take me with you, take me with you im still here
take me with you i'm still here
