When I was a queen in another life
Remember when 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 dandelion
I was always blowin' away into the great grey sky
How I was I to know you were the grassy gound
You were just waitin' for me to finally come around
Butterfly's 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 flyin' in a fiery sky
Tellin' me to love you 'til the day that I day
Everything around me is an old wishbone
Doesn't matter who says, you're my home
When I was alone 'fore I was alive with you
How I was adrift on an ocean only one shade of blue
But now I am asail in a Claude Monet
Now I am ablaze with the glory of this gracious day
Butterfly's 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 flyin' in a fiery sky
Tellin' me to love you 'til the day that I day
Everything around me is an old wishbone
Doesn't matter who says, you're my home
I don't wanna be, be without you
Phoenix is flyin' in a fiery sky
Tellin' me to love you 'til the day that I day
Everything around me is an old wishbone
Doesn't matter who says, you're my home you're mine
