Heavy Lies The Crown Lyrics

Heavy lies the crown in this lonely king size bed

Where we used to lay down and rest our weary heads

We'd snuggle up for movies to escape the winter wind

Now when I wake it's just me with thoughts of you in my head

Heavy lies the heart in this lonely little house

Where we used to play our favorite songs till the summer sun came out

We'd sit out on that front porch and watch the moving clouds

Gaze up at the stars till we laid our heads back down

Heavy lies the crown sitting in your glass

That after work cocktail when I made my first pass

I asked if it said sorry and a smile came on your face

You sat up on your bar stool in that dark smoky place

Sharp are the thorns that appear in our lives

All of the problems stuck in our sides

With patience and a smile we made it through life

We watched each other grow up maybe well before our time

Heavy lies the crown sitting on my head

When all of life's problems made our love come to an end

We tried to persevere but we couldn't outlast the storm

All at once our kingdom fell from the thorns

Heavy lies my eyes from all the restless nights

Sleeping without my queen right by my side

Heavy lies the crown in this lonely king size bed

Where we used to lay down and rest our weary heads
