Mercy, won't you come around again
Mercy, would you be my only friend
Mercy, you're not who you are, and don't you know
You're my shining star
So many years ago we were fighting 'til no end
But then we'd cry and laugh and start it all again
You'd rip the dolls right out of my sister's hands, but don't you know
It wasn't always pretend
As the balls we passed, I travelled distant lands
And in the inky moat I saw the fear right through your hands
But on that fateful day we didn't write us back again, and don't you know
That must've been the end
Mercy, won't you come around again
Mercy, would you be my only friend
Mercy, you're not who you are, and don't you know
You're my shining star
As the schooling clashed, we found ourselves alone
But when the Prince returned, he found the King was just a clone
And what went wrong was more than in his home, oh don't you know
The Clone was only on his throne
And he stuck around, but still he was alone
The Prince tried to talk to him, but the Clone played xylophone
When the violent winds blew across the storm-tossed seas, oh don't you know
The Prince fell to his knees
Mercy, won't you come around again
Mercy, would you be my only friend
Mercy, you're not who you are, and don't you know
You're my shining star
I've been thinking a lot about you for a while now
And I've prayed that you'd come home
I miss the days we'd spend together
We knew we couldn't make it on our own
I hope you know that I love you, yes I do
Just like you used to do
And the storm raging inside will subside
If you let your love run loose
Mercy, won't you come around again
Mercy, would you be my only friend
Mercy, you're not who you are, and don't you know
You're my shining star
