Lyrics
When I was a queen in another life
Remember how I fell to my knees
And asked you to be my wife
Everybody danced, how they laughed and sang
Everybody wanted to be there when those great bells rang
When I was a weed
When I was a dandelion
I was always blowing away into the great grey sky
How was I to know you were the grassy ground
You were just waiting for me to finally come around
Butterflies crawling on the concrete lawn
Telling me to love you if I'm gonna be strong
Everything around me is an empty chair
Don't know where I'm going 'less you're there
Phoenix is flying in a fiery sky
Telling me to love you 'til the day that I die
Everything around me is an old wishbone
Doesn't matter who says you're my home
You're my home
When I was alone before I was alive with you
How I was adrift on an ocean only one shade of blue
But now I am a sailor in a Claude Monet
Now I am ablaze with the glory of this gracious day
Butterflies crawling on the concrete lawn
Telling me to love you if I'm gonna be strong
Everything around me is an empty chair
Don't know where I'm going 'less you're there
Phoenix is flying in a fiery sky
Telling me to love you 'til the day that I die
Everything around me is an old wishbone
Doesn't matter who says you're my home
I don't want to be, I don't want to be
I don't want to be, I don't want to
Anything without you
I don't want to be, I don't want to be
Be without you
I don't want to be, I don't want to be
I don't want to be, I don't want to
Anything without
I don't want to be, I don't want to be
Be without you
Phoenix is flying in a fiery sky
Telling me to love you 'til the day that I die
Everything around me is an old wishbone
Doesn't matter who says you're my home
You're my home
You're my home
You're my home
