Song Lyrics

You're the queen of the slipstream
With eyes that shine
You have crossed many waters to be here
You have drank from the fountain of innocence
You have experienced the long winter years

There's a dream where the contents are visible
Where the poetic champions compose
Will you breathe not a word of this secrecy
Will you still be my special rose

I'm going away
Far across the ocean
But I'll be back for you
I'll tell you everything I know
Tell you everything that's true

Will the blush still remain
On your cheeks my dear
Is the light always seen in your head
Gold and silver they placed
At your feet
But I know you chose me instead

You're the queen of the slipstream
And I love you so
You have crossed many waters to come here
You have tasted the fountain of innocence
You have experienced the long wintery years

Van Morrison
