Oliver Monroe - I Was Not Your King Lyrics

I Was Not Your King

I choose you as my queen
But I was not your king
Just a loyal servant
In a kingdom with no ring
My love for you is pure
It asks for nothing in return
I love you from afar
In this silent burn

Every time I think of you
Or when you cross my side
It tears my heart apart
Deep in the night
You're still always on my mind
You never fade away
The sence of your skin, your touch
Your smile, they stay
Oh yeah

I choose you as my queen
But I was not your king
Just a loyal servant
In a kingdom with no ring
My love for you is pure
It asks for nothing in return
I love you from afar
In this silent burn

I am grateful for your existence
Even though we're apart
You live on in my broken heart
Where you left your mark

Memories of fire
They're burning in my soul
A picture of your laughter
That time cannot control
Even you're no longer here
Your present lingers on
In the whispers of the night
And the breaking dawn
So I'll miss you always in this quiet space
Thankful for the moments and your gentle grace
Of the love that I hold

I choose you as my queen
But I was not your king
Just a loyal servant
In a kingdom with no ring
My love for you is pure
It asks for nothing in return
I love you from afar
In this silent burn

I choose you as my queen
But I was not your king
Just a loyal servant
In a kingdom with no ring
My love for you is pure
It asks for nothing in return
I love you from afar
In this silent burn
