Gypsy Queen

Real Audio Sample (48sec)

Walk past me while I sleep
Shadow in a dream
Silent as morning light
Steals the evening sky
Quiet as cats crossing leaves

Harness the horses to leave
Down by the stream
Soothing their tired eyes
You can tell them why
They'll pull the life out of me

She was to me
My gypsy queen
She'll always be
Queen of my dreams

Dressed in leather
Scent of heather
Dark raven hair

Follow the paths that we knew
Untill all that's old is new
There where the roads will cross
Is what you lost
Chasing your sanguine moon

Circle of life repeat
This is my belief
If I hold this piece of ground
The world spinning 'round
Will bring you right back to me

My queen of dreams
My gypsy queen

The gypsy queen returns in this rock fantasy.

She loves 'em and leaves 'em just as she's always done. She gives her heart freely and just as freely answers the call of the gypsy winds that drive her on. No malice. No deception. She buries her regrets, marks the site somewhere in her romantic soul, leads the horses to the wagon and goes on alone.
