The Kingdom

One of those days

That just comes and goes

It's not so special

She watches the birds

That rest on a ledge

Outside her room

The wallpaper old and faded

The crack in the window pane

The radio just keeps playing

Playing that same old song

She smiles to herself

They think that I'm strange

They say I'm a dreamer

But I don't complain

Though I don't have much

To call my own

She's not a movie star, no

She's not a beauty queen

She'll tell you it doesn't matter

She's not the only one

She says

"I know a place

Where I keep the best of things

(Kingdom)

I'm not gonna wait

For my piece of heaven

(Kingdom)

And where there's a road

That leads to the promised land

(Kingdom)

I just turn the key

Key to the kingdom"

She stares at the page

Of a new magazine

The morning papers

Then walks into town

And catches a show

If she can find the time

She's not a movie star, no

She's not a beauty queen

She'll tell you it doesn't matter

She's not the only one

She says

"I know a place

Where I keep the best of things

(Kingdom)

I'm not gonna wait

For my piece of heaven

(Kingdom)

And where there's a road

That leads to the promised land

(Kingdom)

I just turn the key

Key to the kingdom"

I know a place

Where I keep the best of things

(Kingdom)

I'm not gonna wait

For my piece of heaven

(Kingdom)

And where there's a road

That leads to the promised land

(Kingdom)

I just turn the key

Key to the kingdom

(Kingdom)

I know a place

Where I keep the best of things

(Kingdom)

I'm not gonna wait

For my piece of heaven

(Kingdom)

And where there's a road

That leads to the promised land

(Kingdom)

I just turn the key

Key to the kingdom

(Kingdom)

I know a place

Where I keep the best of things

(Kingdom)

I'm not gonna wait

For my piece of heaven

(Kingdom)

And where there's a road

That leads to the promised land

(Kingdom)

Just turn the key

Key to the kingdom
