Lyrics
The way -- you struggle to your feet
When there's no one there to greet
That you wouldn't like to meet
Some way you stumble down the hall
When every object great and small
Can trip you up and make you fall
Away like your father's house of cards
Yet still you get up
Could be the night of your dreams
Take me to your heart
I'll give you every drop of me
There's nowhere I would rather be
All is vanity
You know it's just a start
When everything turns dark and greedy
The light is always there to see
Come and bear with me
Today you might find your king of hearts
A little worse off than you thought
In a place that you forgot
One day when you couldn't stand the pain
Locked your doors, quit the game
Hid your face and wished your shame
Away like your father's house of cards
Yet still you pick up
Could be the knight of your dreams
