Lyrics of King Of My Heart by Taylor Swift
verse
I′m perfectly fine, I live on my own
I made up my mind
I'm better off being alone
We met a few weeks ago
Now you try on calling me "Baby"
Like trying on clothes
pre-chorus
Salute to me, I′m your American queen
And you move to me like I'm a Motown beat
And we rule the kingdom inside my room
'Cause all the boys in their expensive cars
With their Range Rovers and their Jaguars
Never took me quite where you do
chorus
And all at once
You are the one I have been waiting for
King of my heart, body and soul, oh-whoa
And all at once, you′re all I want
I′ll never let you go
King of my heart, body and soul, oh-whoa
And all at once
I've been waiting, waiting... oh-whoa, oh-whoa
And all at once, you are the one
I have been waiting, waiting...
Body and soul, oh-whoa
And all at once
verse
Late in the night, the city′s asleep
Your love is a secret
I'm hoping, dreaming, dying to keep
Change my priorities
The taste of your lips is my idea of luxury
pre-chorus
Salute to me, I′m your American queen
And you move to me like I'm a Motown beat
And we rule the kingdom inside my room
′Cause all the boys in their expensive cars
With their Range Rovers and their Jaguars
Never took me quite where you do (where you do)
chorus
And all at once
You are the one I have been waiting for
King of my heart, body and soul, oh-whoa
And all at once, you're all I want
I'll never let you go
King of my heart, (my heart) body and soul, oh-whoa
And all at once
I′ve been waiting, waiting... oh-whoa, oh-whoa
And all at once, you are the one
I have been waiting, waiting...
Body and soul, oh-whoa
And all at once
bridge
Is this the end of all the endings?
My broken bones are mending
With all these nights we′re spending
Up on the roof with a school girl crush
Drinking beer out of plastic cups
Say you fancy me, not fancy stuff
Baby, all at once, this is enough
chorus
And all at once
You are the one I have been waiting for
King of my heart, body and soul, oh-whoa
And all at once
You are the one I have been waiting for
King of my heart, body and soul, oh-whoa
And all at once, you're all I want
I′ll never let you go
King of my heart, body and soul, oh-whoa
And all at once
I've been waiting, waiting... oh-whoa, oh-whoa
And all at once, you are the one
I have been waiting, waiting...
Body and soul, oh-whoa
And all at once
Writer(s): Taylor Swift, Max Martin, Johan Karl Schuster
