King & Queen of No Man's Land
I was sitting in my car, on a Monday afternoon
Rain was gently falling, on a dirty downtown street
People walking, people talking, kinda look the same
Then out from the alley, the strangest couple came
He was probably 6 foot 5, and she was 3 feet tall
Living out there on the street, they must have seen it all
I bet that they were 60 years, or maybe 65
Everyday must be a struggle, just to stay alive
The king and queen of no man's land, living on a prayer
All they have here in this world, is the love they share
Day by day without demands, hoping for a helping hand
The king and queen of no man's land, they live out there
In no man's land, there is no castle, there is no kingdom
When they walked beside my car, I heard the woman say
We only need a few more cans, then we can eat today
And then a tear rolled down my cheek, I got all choked up inside
It shouldn't have to be so hard, just to survive
I didn't have much money, but I gave them each a twenty
And the way they looked at me I know, they thought that that was plenty
The king and queen of no man's land, living on a prayer
All they have here in this world, is the love they share
Day by day without demands, hoping for a helping hand
The king and queen of no man's land, they live out there
