lyrics

She storms out of the party.
Man she’s had enough.
She’s screams,
“That’s the last straw!!!”
under her breath,
as she marches down,
through dark lit crowds
on Yonge Street.

Now fellas,
I know what your thinking
and I know that you might
think I done every bad thing
I can in a night.
And you know what
you’d be right.

I yell “Sweetie wait up!”
as I dash for the door,
turn her face to meet mine
while tears fall to the floor
from her heart wrenching
beautiful face.

Cause what the princess wants
the princess gets.

“Is this what I to do to get attention from you?
Make some mistakes til you storm out of the room?”
She says,
“Stop, I cant take this anymore, I’m through,
will you please just go?”.
As I struggle with
no no no no.

But what the princess wants
the princess gets.
And I cant say no
to my princess,
“Before I leave
I have one last request,

can I hear you sing a little,
can I hear sing yah yah?
Cause is the part of your soul
that I’ve never seen.”
And with red watery eyes she says,
“That’s just me.”

At her place the next day
to get all of my stuff,
she greets me in PJs
with her hair held up
by these black bands
I’d find all the time
in my bed months later.
She’s says
“When you start to speak is it gonna make me cry?”
I say “I kinda hope so
cause this is goodbye
after 5 long years,
I can only assume there’d be tears.”

But what the princess wants
the princess gets
and I just cant say bye
to my princess.
“Before I leave I have one last request,
can I hear you sing a little?
Can I hear you sing ‘Yah yah!’
Cause it’s the best part of your soul
that I’ve never seen.”
With red watery eyes she looked up at me
and said, “A little?”
I said, “You can just row your boat a shore.
Cause it’s the best part of your soul
that I’ve never seen.”
and with red watery eyes
she looked up at me and sang to me,

“Row Row Row your boat
gently down the stream…”
And I think my heart
skipped a beat.

But what the princess wants,
the princess gets,
so I said goodbye
to my princess
at least she gave me my last request….
