[01:23.58]When I come into your kingdom

[01:25.42]I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger

[01:29.17]I've never known the loving of a man

[01:32.99]But it sure felt nice

[01:34.64]When he was holding my hand

[01:36.55]There's a boy here in town

[01:38.38]Says he'll love my forever

[01:40.67]Who would have thought forever could be severed by

[01:44.74]The sharp knife of a short life well

[01:52.18]I've had just enough time

[02:13.46]So put on your best boys

[02:15.36]And I'll wear my pearls

[02:18.39]What I never did is done

[02:22.43]A penny for my thoughts
