Queen of the big hurt by Macy Gray Lyrics
Oh the night that we met
We got drunk off Moët
And we laughed until I cried
Told you I'd just broken up
The last one that I loved
And you swore I'd be yours
And you were right
Two months in, the truth begins
And the guards go down
And we really see
Who we are
And what we need
And you're walking out
And you're calling me
The big hurt
The meltdown
The heartbreak
You say I'm the queen of it
But last time
Around
I was with the king of it
The big hurt
And I'm down
But give me time to heal from it
'Cause I know
That I could be good to you
It's the lows
And the screams
Shouting things
I don't mean
It's the times
I don't come home
At night
But baby, don't give up
I'm so hung up on your love
I will learn
To love and treat you right
Two months in, the truth begins
And the guards go down
And we really see
Who we are
And what we need
And you're walking out
While you're calling me
The big hurt
The meltdown
The heartbreak
You say I'm the queen of it
But last time
Around
I was with the king of it
The big hurt
And I'm down
Just give me time to heal from it
'Cause I know
That I could be good (baby)
The big hurt
The meltdown
The chaos
You say I'm the queen of it
But last time
Around (around)
I was with the king of it
The big hurt
And I'm down (I'm down)
Just give me time to heal from it
'Cause I know
That I could be good to you
To you
To you
[Bridge]
And the king still rules
And I am blue
From his residue
But it's time to slay
Our raging ways
Gimme that gun and I'll assassinate
Gimme patience, boo
A little room (?)
What I won't do to be good to you
So baby, will you stay?
While you're callin' me
The big hurt
The meltdown
Baby, I'm the queen of it
(Last time around)
The last time I was with the king of it
(The big hurt)
I'm down
I'm down, yeah
Give me healing from it
Oh yeah, 'cause I could be good
To you
The big hurt
(The chaos)
Yeah
The breakdown
The breakdown
(Yeah)
The big hurt
The chaos
But I could be good to you
(Last time, last time)
Just gimme time
Gimme time to heal from it
(The big hurt and I'm down)
You got the queen of it
But I coud be good to you
(You, baby)
'Cause I could be good to you
I could be good to you
('Cause I could be good to you)
We got drunk off Moët
And we laughed until I cried
Told you I'd just broken up
The last one that I loved
And you swore I'd be yours
And you were right
Two months in, the truth begins
And the guards go down
And we really see
Who we are
And what we need
And you're walking out
And you're calling me
The big hurt
The meltdown
The heartbreak
You say I'm the queen of it
But last time
Around
I was with the king of it
The big hurt
And I'm down
But give me time to heal from it
'Cause I know
That I could be good to you
It's the lows
And the screams
