Lyrics
[Intro]
We did not pump those brakes
And, uh, as a result, nine months later, we were parents
We were much too young to be parents, but we were parents
And for the moment at least, it was perfect
[Verse 1]
So darling, listen
Your arms around me worth more than a kingdom
Yeah, believe that
The trust that we feel, the kings, they never felt that
[Chorus]
Yeah, this is the song we sing
We don't need anything
They can't afford this
This is priceless
They can't afford what we got
Not even the king
They can't afford what we got
Not even the king
