Take away his crown
Take away his jewels 
Kill his knights
Burn down his castle but

Without his Queen he is nothing

Worrying does not take away 
Tomorrow's woes of blue and gray, 
It cancels today's joyous way 
To let now be in disarray.

You are here,
When I feel frustrated
You take away my fear.

without you here
I see you around
