She said, "I'll take the left side tonight, I don't mind
I know you've got a call to take at nine
I'll sleep against the wall, even if it hurts my back
I'll take some Tylenol, you don't worry about that"
I always told her that I'd buy a bigger mattress
Finally made some money, funny how it happens
Got so caught up, forgot who I was
Forgot about us
Bought a king-size bed when I lost my queen
Thinkin' maybe then she'll come back to me, but
I'm here by myself instead
Lookin' stupid in my king-size bed
She's in my head, and she's in my dreams
Thinkin' maybe then she'll come back to me, but
I'm here by myself instead
Lookin' stupid in my king-size bed
I'll take the cold floor tonight, think I might
Sleep by the door and keep on the light
Like you did for me, would only be right
That I do the same for you, so alright
It's better late than never, so I'm so sleeping on the ground
I owed you so much better, baby, you deserved a crown
And though we're not together, I still hope you'll come around
I hope you'll come around
Bought a king-size bed when I lost my queen
Thinkin' maybe then she'll come back to me, but
I'm here by myself instead
Lookin' stupid in my king-size bed
She's in my head, and she's in my dreams
Thinkin' maybe she'll come back to me, but
I'm here by myself instead
Lookin' stupid in my king-size bed
Oh, I bought the bed, I bought the bed
Oh, I bought the bed, I bought the bed
Oh, I bought the bed, I bought the bed
Oh, just like I said, I bought the bed (ah)
Oh, I bought the bed, I bought the bed
Oh, I bought the bed, I bought the bed
Oh, I bought the bed, I bought the bed
Oh, just like I said, I bought the bed
Bought a king-size bed when I lost my queen
Thinkin' maybe then she'll come back to me, but
I'm here by myself instead
Lookin' stupid in my king-size bed
She's in my head, and she's in my dreams
Thinkin' maybe she'll come back to me, but
I'm here by myself instead
Lookin' stupid in my king-size bed
