The queen of Irish girls with dreams |
|
flew across the wooden floor |
|
And fluttered her wings her big strong wings |
|
and made us guess once more |
|
She's not a cloud, not an angel, not a turtledove, |
|
a superman, a flying dinosaur, |
|
An eagle or a sparrow or a faerie sprite |
|
not a zeppelin or a plane in flight |
|
She's the queen of little girls that dream |
|
and she'll take you by surprise |
|
She'll make youu walk down corridors |
|
with revolution in your eyes |
|
She'll make you wonder if if if, |
|
make you tremble at the touch of a fingertip |
|
Make you sing the words to a thousend songs |
|
'til the words fade away |
|
Like a worm that flies/ Like a killer that cries |
|
Like a heart that lies/ Like the look in your eyes, |
|
in your eyes |
|
The queen of little girls that dream |
|
Makes you remember the girl |
|
That ran down the boulevard |
|
for all the money in the world |
|
Your cells jumped you fell so high |
|
you hung above the pavement like a butterfly |
|
You fell so low down to the ground |
|
suspended by this love you found |
|
Like a worm that flies/ Like a killer that cries |
|
Like a heart that lies/ Like the look in your eyes, |
|
in your eyes |
|
The queen of Irish girls tha dream |
|
grows impatient with us now |
|
We haven't guessed how she flutters by |
|
we haven't dreamed of her somehow |
|
So she makes you look in the others eyes |
|
withwant of her the child butterfly |
|
And thrills you to dream the impossible |
|
and when you don't she says goodbye |
|
For she rules all that do not dream |
|
that see birds and jet engines |
|
In places where their hearts should see |
|
more improbable things |
|
Like a worm that flies/ Like a killer that cries |
|
Like a heart that lies/ Like the look in your eyes |
