Humble Bee — текст песни (John Wesley Harding)

Once upon a time
I could have had it all
A princess with a price on her head
Or the prince who`d climb her wall
But when pride has it in for someone
None of us can check the fall
Now I`m humble as a bumblebee
I`m getting used to how things have to be
Just another mumble
Buzzing round and round in rings
So afraid that I won`t be king
This is the sting, I still want everything
Here is the twist, you`re on my list and
Here`s what I mean, you`re still the queen
And I want you

Now I wonder
If I will ever be
The lighthouse in a sea of shadows
That you were when you shined for me
When I was going under
You knew when and where to be
Now I`m as good as Ebenezer after his conversion
I`d give all my goods away with no coercion
I`d give almost anything
Just to hear the hum of your wings
This is the sting, I still want everything
Here is the twist, you`re on my list and
Here`s what I mean, you`re still the queen
And I want you, honey, I want you

I was as `umble as Uriah
Just before his tumble
But I fumbled for the best of me
Amongst the jumble
Heaven knows where we went wrong

Don Quixote or Donkey Kong
This is the sting, I still want everything
Here is the twist, you`re on my list
Here`s what I mean, you`re still the queen
And I want you, honey, I want you

I want you
