garden of versailles
Brick and marble, blue and gold
Weave through crowds like we've been told
In and out, oh I go crazy, it's true
Artwork like I've never seen
Paintings made for kings and queens
But it couldn't compete with you
A gold heart can stretch miles apart
Yeah don't worry at all my dear
I'm in Versailles, and you're on my mind
Come to terms with the medicine you provide
Sitting high on my marble throne
Wishing you were here, you know
With me in the gardens of Versailles
Living like we're royalty
Learn the local history
All day long all I see is your face
Limestone likeness of the gods
Palaces that beat the odds
Get distracted getting lost in a maze
We exist in distance
I'll be back in a bit my dear
I'm in Versailles, and you're on my mind
Come to terms with the medicine you provide
Sitting high on a marble throne
Wishing you were here, you know
With me in the gardens of Versailles
We're taking pictures posing like statues frozen
Tapestries framed and chosen
For men who ruled like fools
Picked and preened roses
Cry as he proposes in your mind
Suppose it's time that girls made the rules
Words I don't know anymore
Communication's out the door
I gotta move on before I lose my mind
3 AM, I'll take the blame
Got the French cursing your name
Lights, feathers, fame have maybe made me blind
Oh the time it takes for hearts to break
I'd still be your mistake my dear
I'm in Versailles, and you're on my mind
Come to terms with the medicine you provide
Sitting high on my marble throne
Wishing you were here, you know
With me in the gardens of Versailles
Weave through crowds like we've been told
In and out, oh I go crazy, it's true
Artwork like I've never seen
Paintings made for kings and queens
But it couldn't compete with you
A gold heart can stretch miles apart
Yeah don't worry at all my dear
I'm in Versailles, and you're on my mind
Come to terms with the medicine you provide
Sitting high on my marble throne
Wishing you were here, you know
With me in the gardens of Versailles
Living like we're royalty
Learn the local history
All day long all I see is your face
Limestone likeness of the gods
Palaces that beat the odds
Get distracted getting lost in a maze
We exist in distance
I'll be back in a bit my dear
I'm in Versailles, and you're on my mind
Come to terms with the medicine you provide
Sitting high on a marble throne
Wishing you were here, you know
With me in the gardens of Versailles
We're taking pictures posing like statues frozen
Tapestries framed and chosen
For men who ruled like fools
Picked and preened roses
Cry as he proposes in your mind
Suppose it's time that girls made the rules
Words I don't know anymore
Communication's out the door
I gotta move on before I lose my mind
3 AM, I'll take the blame
Got the French cursing your name
Lights, feathers, fame have maybe made me blind
Oh the time it takes for hearts to break
I'd still be your mistake my dear
I'm in Versailles, and you're on my mind
Come to terms with the medicine you provide
Sitting high on my marble throne
Wishing you were here, you know
With me in the gardens of Versailles
