Take it back to the night it started
In that crowded room over at Mr. Joe's
I caught you looking across the party
Wondering where this energy goes
You couldn't keep it a secret, baby
You kept on asking Lucy for my name
I'm so glad that you made that move
Because nothing has ever been the same
ChorusGary, you're the king of my heart
Funny and sexy, right from the start
So strong, but you handle me tender and slow
You're the man that I'm wanting to know
Even better than I do right now
Let's take our time, let the hours slow down
Every minute with you is a beautiful thing
My hard-working man, my king
Verse 2I watch the way that you move through the world
So resilient, no matter the weight
Considerate in all that you do
With a wise soul I appreciate
You put the work in from dawn to dusk
But you still find the time for the two of us
It's a rare kind of magic we found
Whenever you're coming around
ChorusGary, you're the king of my heart
Funny and sexy, right from the start
So strong, but you handle me tender and slow
You're the man that I'm wanting to know
Even better than I do right now
Let's take our time, let the hours slow down
Every minute with you is a beautiful thing
My hard-working man, my king
BridgeThere is so much of your soul left to see
So many layers between you and me
I'm looking forward to the days up ahead
Every quiet moment, every word softly said
You wear a crown in my eyes, it's true
I just want to spend all my time with you
Final ChorusGary, you're the king of my heart
Funny and sexy, right from the start
So strong, but you handle me tender and slow
You're the man that I'm wanting to know
Even better than I do right now
Let's take our time, let the hours slow down
Since Mr. Joe's, it's a beautiful thing
I'm falling for you, my king
