03 · Damsel

Bring me dahlias

Adorn me in silver

I'll wear my tiara

And call down the thunder

You know the strength beneath my grace

The quiet courage in my gaze

Yet still you reach to take my hand

And treat me like the queen I am

I want the castle, want the crown

Your steady arms when walls come down

When danger comes to claim the throne

You won't be facing it alone

I know that I can stand alone

But in your arms, I've found my home

I'm not your damsel in distress

But I still want to be your princess

You can dress me like a queen

But love the woman underneath

I want your arms around me tight

Your axe, my lightning in the fight

I don't need someone to rescue me

I just love the way you protect me

A stolen kiss, a tender touch

It's little things I love so much

I'll wear my silk and summon storms

Then find my peace within your arms

When all your armor falls away

You know I'll love you either way

I'll kiss the scars you never show

And love the parts no others know

I could rule a kingdom on my own

But I'd rather share the throne

No royal vows could ever prove

The depth of what I feel for you

I'm not your damsel in distress

But I still want to be your princess

You can dress me like a queen

But love the woman underneath

I want your arms around me tight

Your axe, my lightning in the fight

I don't need someone to rescue me

I just love the way you protect me

Bring me dahlias

Adorn me in silver

I'll wear my tiara

And call down the thunder
