I slip my hand into yours
the day closes into night
and night into day
pull my hand free
and the time drags eternally
troubles like rocks in my gears
pile up and my thoughts go stuck
on you
on you
on you
it’s all on you
You move and I slide
I match your stride
you laugh at my jokes
and there not that funny
the press of your hand
at the small of my back
I sigh as I melt
on you
on you
on you
it’s all on you
you coax
and you crown
I am your queen
and this land that I covet
that I ruled all alone
has now found a king
and my heart is his throne
I open the gates and my joy escapes
on you
on you
on you
it’s all on you.
