Текст песни White Queen (As It Began) (Live at the Rainbow, London / November 1974) - Queen

This is a number fom Queen II written by Brian May
White Queen

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 could make
Still I wait

My goddess, hear my darkest fear
I speak too late
It's for evermore that I wait
Dear friends, goodbye
No tears in my eyes
So sad it ends as it began

Thanks a lot
Thanks a lot, it's nice to see you all again tonight
Makes the Rainbow feel like home for us, great
We've narrowly, narrowly escaped having a number one single this week
And this is the side which you haven't been hearing on the Tony Blackburn Show
