Ghost Of A King

I saw the ghost of a king today
I saw the ghost of a king today
Ivory bone and two babes in his arms
The weight of the world having killed his charm

Cuts at the trees and hunts the deer
Reared for slaughter when the guns are near
He said hey I got kids now a house and a wife
This is my new death now this is my life

And I
Know you
You, I know you
You

Turns out the lights to escape from the moths
Sits in the dark with a painting awashed
With the life that he wishes would meet him in death
Remembering tales as he takes his last breath

So take all the money and choose a new door
Cause change isn't change when you know whats in store
Oh it might seem you don't know who I am anymore
But you're the only one who knows the person I was before

And I
Know you
You, and I

(Hey)

Say hey do you wanna go take a walk in the woods
(Take a walk in the wild in the woods with me)
We'll walk and we'll talk and remember what was good
(Lighter days lighter days lighter days lighter days)
And we'll take from the trees so we'll never forget
(Who we were when we were care free and living in ecstasy)
And plant all the seeds from the time when we meet

I saw one I saw two I saw three shooting stars
Cut through the night like an arrow on fire
I said boy this ain't strong I smoke more than this now
So pass me the light and I can show you how

And I
Know you, you
And I
Know you, you
And I

Know
I know you
(2, 3)

I know you, you
And I
I Know you
