|
They said "God Bless the Prince of Wales |
|
Let let us hope that he prevails." |
|
The souvenirs provide details |
|
Of distant monarchy |
|
Moving through the human tide |
|
With the Princess at his side |
|
Tribesmen cheer and gaze wide-eyed |
|
At such celebrity |
|
The Royal smile from magazines |
|
Waving hands from limousines |
|
The crowd holds pictures of the Queen |
|
The magic entity |
|
These images are beamed to me |
|
Ten thousand miles across the sea |
|
Lately I don't seem to be |
|
Concerned with what they mean |
|
In the dark, in the dark |
|
Oh I never saw the danger or the spark |
|
In the dark, in the dark |
|
I was feeling like a stranger |
|
'Cause I never saw the changes in your heart |
|
Those angry words you soon regret |
|
Are gone but not forgotten yet |
|
She may forgive, she won't forget |
|
Each individual scar |
|
You make it up and say no more |
|
And go on living like before |
|
But every wave erodes the shore |
|
And tarnishes the star |
|
You sow each seed of discontent |
|
Wonder where the loving went |
|
Every night that's heaven sent |
|
The dawn can sweep away |
|
And in the background all the time |
|
Like some ironic church bell chime |
|
You watch the Royal couple climb |
|
Towards their destiny |
|
In the dark, in the dark |
|
Oh I never saw the danger or the spark |
|
In the dark, in the dark |
|
I was feeling like a stranger |
|
I never saw the changes in your heart |
|
So yes, let's bless the Prince of Wales |
|
Cheer for him and if all fails |
|
Wrap him in Valkyries' sails |
|
The golden vanity |
|
I am free to choose my part |
|
But still can't find the place to start |
|
To find my way back to your heart |
|
That place of mystery |
|
In Africa the anchor slips |
|
They bid farewell to the Royal ship |
|
The newly painted fences chip |
|
Life falls into routine |
|
We go on from day to day |
|
Living in the usual way |
|
I don't know, and you won't say |
|
What happened in between |
|
In the dark, in the dark |
|
Oh I never saw the danger or the spark |
|
In the dark, in the dark |
|
I was feeling like a stranger |
|
'Cause I never saw the changes |
|
In the dark, in the dark |
|
Oh I never saw the danger or the spark |
|
In the dark, in the dark |
|
I was feeling like a stranger |
|
I never saw the changes in your heart |
|
Oh, I never saw the changes in your heart |
