crowned and kissed

Esperanza Spalding

My king, my king, my, my, my, my
My king, my king, my, my, my, my

Where is the throne,
For you, whose tender strength can heal a thousand souls
Everyone you touch turns to gold
Many have tried, but you're the one
Whose noble touch has gently pried
The sword from my heart
Once you, put a smile on the sun
Once you, paved the road for everyone
And you, shed the worries of another
And you, lay your burdens down
Don't even make a sound, don't worry about a thing
I'm here to love you
My kisses are your crown and I'm your queen
So now lay with me my king
I'm here to love you
Just lay your burdens down
Don't even make a sound, don't worry about a thing
I'm here to love you
My kisses are your crown and I'm your queen
So now lay with me my king
I'm here to love you, to love you
I'm here...

Go ahead take on the world,
I'll be beside you as you vanquish pain and war
Each battlefield transformed now,
Hope can grow
Oh, this just sure can do what,
I know even the strongest man needs
Someone to hold him
Once you, carried all the weight on the shoulder
And you, made a way for the future
Lay your burdens down

Just lay your burdens down
Don't even make a sound, don't worry about a thing
I'm here to love you
My kisses are your crown and I'm your queen
So now lay with me my king
I'm here to love you
Lay your burdens down
Don't even make a sound, don't worry about a thing
I'm here to love you
My kisses are your crown and I'm your queen
So now lay with me my king
I'm here to love you
I'm here, I'm here

Just lay your burdens down
Don't even make a sound, don't worry about a thing
I'm here to love you
My kisses are your crown and I'm your queen
So now lay with me my king
I'm here to love you
Lay your burdens down
Don't even make a sound, don't worry about a thing
I'm here to love you
My kisses are your crown and I'm your queen
So now lay with me my king
I'm here to love you

Lay your burdens down, don't even make a sound,
I'll be beside you as you vanquish pain and war
So hope can grow
Everyone you touch just turns to gold
I'm here to love you
I want you to know I'll be by your side
I'm here to love you
