The Once and Future Queen Lyrics

Someone's gonna hold your hand
And everything will clear
Touch you when some unknown when they finally does the trick
Put in a fairytale where you meant to be
That someone, that someone won't be me
Someone's out there praying for
The day that you walk you in
An happy ever after could finally begin
Someone who'll stop at nothing
To give you all you need

And that's okay
I never really love you anyway
At least not unconditionally
That subject loves the once and future queen

If I thought that I be good for you
If I thought this could work
I'd reach a little higher
And pull you back to earth
But the man you're really looking for
Wanted all your dreams
That someone, that someone won't be me

And that's okay
You never really love me anyway
Not enough to meet me half the way
Our love's something you could only take

And that's okay
I never really love you anyway
At least not unconditionally
That subject loves the once and future queen

John Paul White is an American singer-songwriter, and was a member of the Grammy Award-winning duo The Civil Wars. He restarted his solo career with his 2016 release, "Beulah".

From deep in inland Alabama comes a talent so effortless and sincere that it is a wonder why the big wigs didn't jump on him sooner. John Paul White, who has recently signed with mega-label Capitol Records, relies mostly on his acoustic guitar to build his songs - but has no problems dressing them up with melodic electric guitar lines. I know I'm always pulling the dramatics out of my hat, but these songs really are achingly beautiful. I hope you'll hear more from JPW in the future as he records his new disc for Capitol. He was excited about me wanting to share two tracks from the demo I had him send, and I hope you'll be just as excited to hear them. - Lizzy Mineapolis

John Paul White also comprised one-half of The Civil Wars along with Joy Williams. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
