The second track created during the writing sessions for this ep, it was inspired by the feel good vibe that a lot of the folk/rock of the 60's gives me. I wanted to do my best to contribute to the batch of already amazing songs from that time.
lyrics
So the Sun King has come around
Stealing everybody's crown
Where can you go when life is cold?
And your glorious kingdom warm
Take away the coming storm
Sun King, will do you harm if you're no good
Oh the Sun King has come to sing along
Listen now to his lovely song
Follow the Sun King, he's come
For the Sun King has come
Oh the Sun King has come
Oh the Sun King has come
You sing of the world
One without the cold
I commend on your aspirations but
Troubles there shall be, torn
And all you try to do will come if you fight
And the Sun King is here
He's still alive
Oh the Sun King has come
And his crown is red
Oh the Sun King has come
Maybe we can sing again
Oh the Sun King
In his palace of
Light shining down
Bathe our world in your warmth
Oh the Sun King has come
Oh the Sun King has come to us all.
