๐ Lyrics
So sad, her eyes
Smiling, dark eyes
So sad, her eyes
As it began
On such a breathless night as this
Upon my brow the lightest kiss
I walked alone
And all around the air did say
My lady soon will stir this way
In sorrow known
The white queen walks
And the night grows pale
Stars of lovingness in her hair
Heeding, unheard
Pleading, one word
So sad, her eyes
She cannot see
How did thee fare, what have thee seen?
The mother of the willow green
I call her name
And 'neath her window have i stayed
I loved the footsteps that she made
And when she came
White queen how my heart did ache
And dry my lips no word would make
Still I wait
My goddess hear, my darkest fear!
It's not too late
It's for evermore, that I wait
Dear friend, goodbye
No tears, in my eyes
So sad, it ends
As it began
Thank you, (thanks, thanks for listening)
I'll tell you what
How, how would you like to know
About a dirty old man that I know about?
Do you know what he's called?
He's called 'Great King Rat'
Smiling, dark eyes
So sad, her eyes
As it began
On such a breathless night as this
Upon my brow the lightest kiss
I walked alone
And all around the air did say
My lady soon will stir this way
In sorrow known
The white queen walks
And the night grows pale
Stars of lovingness in her hair
Heeding, unheard
Pleading, one word
So sad, her eyes
She cannot see
How did thee fare, what have thee seen?
The mother of the willow green
I call her name
And 'neath her window have i stayed
I loved the footsteps that she made
And when she came
White queen how my heart did ache
And dry my lips no word would make
Still I wait
My goddess hear, my darkest fear!
It's not too late
It's for evermore, that I wait
Dear friend, goodbye
No tears, in my eyes
So sad, it ends
As it began
Thank you, (thanks, thanks for listening)
I'll tell you what
How, how would you like to know
About a dirty old man that I know about?
Do you know what he's called?
He's called 'Great King Rat'
