Future King - Mason Jennings

From the broken window of your room

We watch the tower kiss the halo of the moon

Somewhere in a field of our friends

You left my favorite shirt hanging on a fence

To scare the crows, no one knows

Just how, our story goes

You and I, before we die

We’re going to give this dream a try

When we do, tell me true

What am I to you?

Just a passing thing, or your future king?

They’re gonna say the rules are real

We’re gonna say we go by feel

They’re gonna say we’ve got it wrong

We’re gonna say the world’s a song

We make up as we go

Sailing paper airplanes down the stairs

We hear the sirens in the warm summer air

Leanin' out the window, lookin' up

We watch the Big Dipper slowly filling up

The darkness grows, no one knows

Just how, our story goes

You and I, before we die

We’re going to give this dream a try

When we do, tell me true

What am I to you?

Just a passing thing, or your future king?

They’re gonna say the rules are real

We’re gonna say we go by feel

They’re gonna say we’ve got it wrong

We’re gonna say the world’s a song

We make up as we go
