A messenger arrived through |
|
a sunlit open door |
|
Passed the dangers of the world |
|
to his troubled queen so bored |
|
With a voice full of worry and |
|
a frightened fighter's face |
|
Another day's morning in life's busy race |
|
He looked into her eyes before he spoke |
|
Play my darling, play |
|
Don't you put yourself on the throne no more |
|
Play my darling, play |
|
There's a world outside our broken borders |
|
Play my darling, play |
|
Don't you put your key in another door |
|
Play my darling, play |
|
With a world outside your broken borders |
|
She's a lonely young girl |
|
she's the sister of the moon |
|
Her heart is like November |
|
though she wants it to be June |
|
Larger than life she's standing there so tall |
|
There's a note with her name and |
|
it's hanging on the wall |
|
Her eyes they opened wide when she read |
|
(Play my darling, play) |
|
She's stuck there on her |
|
island so marooned |
|
The limelights got |
|
her blinded and harpooned. |
