King Bed lyrics
by Eileen Alister
[Verse 1]
I close my eyes and we're tiny dancers in the livin' room
The little lies I make up on spot when I think of you
'Cause I take every bad thing about you and paint it new
I count to five and fix the broken glass with locked-eye glue
You're the nicest guy when I change my perspective and my point of view
Well aware that the version I love in my head's nothin' like you
[Chorus]
I close my eyes
Still see you every single night
I made up a fictional version
He looks like you, but is a better person
I painted you
So faultless inside my head (In my head)
I made up a fictional version
He looks like you, but is a better person
Look at me, how I dread
To sleep alone in my king bed
[Verse 2]
You might be the coldest breeze winter's ever seen
But I picture you like sunshine, snowflakes, when I dream
And it's only that I twist and turn it to a third degree
[Chorus]
I close my eyes
Still see you every single night
I made up a fictional version
He looks like you, but is a better person
I painted you
So faultless inside my head (In my head)
I made up a fictional version
He looks like you, but is a better person (A better person)
[Bridge]
I know we're over
But I'm still under the weather
And you played the part
Right from the start
I should've known better
None of it was true
'Cause none of it was you
You played house for some time
But you were never mine
You were never mine
[Outro]
I close my eyes
Still see you every single night
I made up a fictional version
He looks like you, but is a better person
