lyrics

Princess And The Jester
By Jeff Johnson

You're a princess and I'm just a jester in this court of life.
You're a rose in the springtime blowing softly in the evening breeze.
You're yourself, you're unique and you're beautiful, so beautiful,
And I sit here wondering how it's possible that you are my wife.

Somebody slap me,
Wake me up to reality.
Surely I'm dreaming,
Tell the truth, before I believe.

You must be joking me,
I can tell, yes you're kidding me.
Yet, there you are,
And you're saying that you love me, too.

You're a princess and I'm just a jester in this court of life.
You're a rose in the springtime blowing softly in the evening breeze.
You're yourself, you're unique and you're beautiful, so beautiful,
And I sit here wondering how it's possible that you are my wife.

One of my all time favorite of Phil’s vocal albums. Love the message of this album, especially Rise Up O Men Of God, which is still fully relevant today. Thank you for an outstanding record. bjbald
