Vireo's Eye |
| A loose, and hazy time |
| When you were not my Clementine |
| And I was not your diamond’s eye |
| Bereft, as daisies lie |
| For our love was not lost in style |
| You were strong, I was a child |
| We, we’re not kings here |
| We’re not kings here |
| We’re just strangers |
| We, we’re not kings here |
| We’re not kings here |
| We’re just strangers |
| And Love, has died in song |
| Carried down by ancient tongues |
| Ferried around the water’s thrum |
| And winds, along a line |
| Along a whirl, a lonely girl |
| To be, to see, to sweat, and bleed |
| To fall on your sword-on your sword |
| On your word |
| We, we’re not kings here |
| We’re not kings here |
| We’re just strangers |
| We, we’re not kings here |
| We’re not kings here |
| We’re just strangers |
| Be still, by my side |
| For you are not my Clementine |
| And I am not your diamond’s eye |
| To Sleep! |
| By right of you, I can’t endure |
| In the light of things, I can’t ignore |
| In spite of all the rose’s thorns, and hopeless words, and hopeless works |
| We’re not kings here |
| We’re not kings here |
| We’re just strangers |
| We, we’re not kings here |
| We’re not the kings here |
| We’re just strangers |
| We, we’re not kings here |
| We’re not kings here |
| We’re just strangers |
| We, we’re not kings here |
| We’re not the kings here |
| We’re just strangers |
| And angels |
