[English]

Can we love until there's nothing left?

And we're collecting dust (dust)

Use the hell out our outgolden souls

Until we're flecks of rust (rust)

A love so deep, nothing else like it

Scars go deep, but they can't find it

Flame so bright, make the daylight

Look dark (dark)

Cross my heart that I'd die for ya

Cross my heart that I'll always keep ya

Cross my heart like a bitter sweet

Tattoo (tattoo)

And we go-oh

You're my kingdom come

Oh

You're my kingdom come

So sit me on your throne

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Let it intertwine, your hand in mine

And fill the empty space (space)

All the demons cry 'cause you and I

Found love in a broken place (place)

A love so deep, nothing else like it

Scars go deep, but they can't find it

Flame so bright, make the daylight

Look dark (dark)

Cross my heart that I'd die for ya

Cross my heart that I'll always keep ya

Cross my heart like a bitter sweet

Tattoo (tattoo)

And we go-oh

You're my kingdom come

Oh

You're my kingdom come

So sit me on your throne

Yeah (yeah)

Yeah (yeah)

Yeah (Iggs)

Gather around, now I'm back from my holiday

"Long live the queen," what the people say

And that be me, I got a king in my cavalry

Them other knights say, "Goodnight," they get apathy

You'll never catch an Adam without Eve

You'll never catch a Blue without Steve

See what I mean? You're my Caesar, burn my chariot

You know Family Matters, what's Carl without Harriot? (Baby)

Inseperable, like Mary Kate and Ashley

Incredible, I'm ready if you ask me

To ride on them, them meaning chicks, ya feel me?

I break 'em down, it's a sport, I should win an Espy

Royalty another level, boy, your throne shine

Legendary love, the nation needs a paradigm

Call all the king's horses and all the kingsmen

We rule until the end, kingdom come

And we go-oh

You're my kingdom come

Oh

You're my kingdom come

So sit me on your throne

Yeah

You're my kingdom come

So sit me on your throne

Yeah

You're my kingdom come

So sit me on your throne

...
