With one light on in one room 
I know you‘re up when I get home 
With one small step upon the stair 
I know your look when I get there 

If you were a king up there on your throne 
Would you be wise enough to let me go? 
For this queen you think you own 

Wants to be a hunter again 
Wants to see the world alone again 
To take a chance on life again 
So let me go 

The unread book and painful look 
The TV‘s on, the sound is down 
One long pause 
Then you begin 
"Oh look what the cat‘s brought in" 

If you were a king up there on your throne 
Would you be wise enough to let me go? 
For this queen you think you own 

Wants to be a hunter again, 
I want to see the world alone again 
To take a chance on life again 
So let me go 
Let me leave 

For the crown you‘ve placed upon my head 
Feels too heavy now 
And I don‘t know what to say to you 
But I‘ll smile anyhow 
And all the time I‘m thinking, thinking 

I want to be a hunter again 
I want to see the world alone again 
To take a chance on life again 
So let me go 

I want to be a hunter again 
I want to see the world alone again 
To take a chance on life again 
So let me go 
Let me leave 
Let me go
