King Size Bed
Alec Benjamin · King Size Bed
I know you've got a call to take at nine
I'll sleep against the wall, even if it hurts my back
I'll take some Tylenol, you don't worry about that"
I always told her that I'd buy a bigger mattress
Finally made some money, funny how it happens
Got so caught up, forgot who I was, forgot about us
Bought a king size bed when I lost my queen
Thinking maybe then she'll come back to me, but
I'm here by myself instead
Looking stupid in my king size bed
She's in my head, and she's in my dreams
Thinking maybe she'll come back to me, but
I'm here by myself instead
Looking stupid in my king size bed
I'll take the cold floor tonight, think I might
Sleep by the door and keep on the light
Like you did for me, would only be right
That I do the same for you, so alright
It's better late then never, so I'm sleeping on the ground
I owed you so much better, baby, you deserved a crown
And, though we're not together, I still hope you'll come around
I hope you'll come around
Bought a king size bed when I lost my queen
Thinking maybe then she'll come back to me, but
I'm here by myself instead
Looking stupid in my king size bed
She's in my head, and she's in my dreams
Thinking maybe she'll come back to me, but
I'm here by myself instead
Looking stupid in my king size bed
Oh! I bought the bed, I bought the bed
Oh! I bought the bed, I bought the bed
Oh! I bought the bed, I bought the bed
Oh, just like I said, I bought the bed
Oh! I bought the bed, I bought the bed
Oh! I bought the bed, I bought the bed
Oh! I bought the bed, I bought the bed
Oh! just like I said, I bought the bed
Bought a king size bed when I lost my queen
Thinking maybe then she'll come back to me, but
I'm here by myself instead
Looking stupid in my king size bed
She's in my head, and she's in my dreams
Thinking maybe she'll come back to me, but
I'm here by myself instead
Looking stupid in my king size bed
About King Size Bed
"King Size Bed" finds Alec Benjamin in a pop-minded frame, where a clear central idea and emotional directness are the real strengths. The song works best when its main melodic and rhythmic ideas are allowed to speak plainly, without being crowded by unnecessary decoration. There is a welcome sense of proportion in the way the music presents itself: the hook has room to land, while the surrounding moments support it instead of competing for attention. That restraint gives the performance room to breathe and makes the emotional color feel earned rather than imposed. For listeners returning to Alec Benjamin, the song offers a compact example of how mood, pacing, and a recognizable point of view can meet in one place. It is a track for focused listening, especially when the details around the main idea begin to reveal their own quiet pull. The clarity of that approach is its own strength, because it lets the feeling come through without turning every moment into a dramatic demand. Even when it aims for immediacy, the track avoids feeling disposable because its atmosphere remains distinct after the final note. Its emotional center stays firmly in view throughout.
