Lyrics
River Queen
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Saw an angel been nailed to the cross
Down the dim river side
A woman cry be with me into the end of the light
Born a river queen to grace for land and hope
Laying on silver stones
To give to the poor
But god´s men came to land and took it all
Starlight mystic now paint the sky
Starlight mystic now lift her spirit high
(In) memories of a queen who was giving her love
Down the rivers end
What a vision and why the hell am I getting this
Her beauty is changing my mind
I promise you woman to tell them the story of thine
Truth or fairytale a raggle taggle crowe screaming:
Humanity was losing all senses in life when religion came in
