Queen Of My Heart
To the Queen of my Heart, from the King of Nowhere
I have watched you arming, and how you wave your sword in the air
Always fighting the shadows as they move behind you
And the beating wings that hover around you...
To the queen of my heart, from the king of nowhere
It's a shallow sky that holds us in; you can reach right out
And touch the edge with just one outstretched hand and feel
The dark come closing in
And there's nowhere far enough away from here
The ringing ears and the closing air, and the cities and deserts all beat the same
The radio waves crackle and phase, the satellites spinning slowly round
The radar towers search and call
To the Queen of my Heart, from the King of Nowhere...
This is the great world calling to the last crusader
In the rush of the lifeblood coming out of the sunrise...
And you're the Queen of my Heart... and I'm the King of Nowhere
