Queen
White Queen (As It Began) (Live at the Hammersmith Odeon, 24th December 1975)
[Spoken Word: Freddie Mercury]
Okay, darlings, this is a little, delicate little number called "White Queen"

[Intro]
So sad, her eyes
Smiling, dark eyes
So sad, her eyes
As it began, oh

[Verse 1]
On such a breathless night as this
Upon my brow, the lightest kiss
I walked alone

[Verse 2]
And all around the air did say
My lady soon will stir this way
In sorrow known

[Bridge 1]
The white queen walks and the night grows pale
Stars of lovingness in her hair

[Chorus]
Needing, unheard
Pleading, one word
So sad, her eyes
She cannot see, oh
[Verse 3]
How did thee fare, what have thee seen?
The mother of the willow green
I call her name

[Verse 4]
And 'neath her window have I stayed
I loved the footsteps that she made
And when she came

[Bridge 2]
White queen, how my heart did ache
And dry my lips, no words can make
Still I wait

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge 3]
My goddess hear my darkest fear
I speak too late
It's forevermore that I wait
Dear friend, goodbye
No tears, my eyes

[Outro]
So sad it ends
As it began
