Crown
Twin Bandit Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I took a train, up from Illinois,
I was following through on,
A letter you send,
I always feel that height,
You'd be true, true to yourself,
To the bitter end.

It just gonna happen though,
So she said.
She was drinking lonely,
(Another rest).
He meant nothing,
He was having stance.
She said she loves me still
Amongst a second chance.

I don't wanna be together,
I don't wanna be apart.
I don't want none of this love for you, honey,
Deep, deep down in my heart.

Where's my golden crown,
That you took (again),
Passed it around.
There's no telling why
A man might do with a
Life like this, swimming,
All falls through.

I don't wanna be together,
I don't wanna be apart.
I don't want none of this love for you, honey,
Deep, deep down in my heart.

You remind, dream come true.
Can't you see what you put me through?
A love that takes me apart,
Still beath, deep, deep down in my heart,
Deep, deep, deep down in my heart.

I don't wanna be together,
I don't wanna be apart.
I don't want none of this love for you, honey,
Deep, deep down in my heart.
I don't wanna be together,
I don't wanna be apart.




I don't want none of this love for you, honey,
Deep, deep down in my heart.
