I Might Have Been Queen

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm a new pair of eyes every time I am born And original mind because I just died But I'm scanning the horizon for someone recognizing That I might've been queen For every sun that sets, there is a new one dawning For every empire crushed, there is a brand new nation Let the waters rise, I have ridden each tide From the gates of the city where the firstborn died [Chorus] And I might've been queen I remember the girl in the fields with no name She had a love Oh, but the river won't stop for me No, the river won't stop for me [Verse 2] I'm a new pair of eyes and original mind With my senses of old and the heart of a giant And I'm searching through the wreckage for some re-recollection That I might have been queen For every sage that falls, there's an ancient child [Chorus] And I might've been queen I remember the girl in the fields with no name She had a love Oh, but the river won't stop for me No, the river won't stop for me [Bridge] I look up to the stars with my perfect memory I look through it all and my future's no shock to me I look down, but I see no tragedy I look up to my past, a spirit running free I look down, I look down and I'm there in history Oh, I'm a soul survivor [Outro] A soul survivor on the river But it won't stop A soul survivor on the river (I might've been queen) But it won't stop A soul survivor on the river But it won't stop (I know the secret combination) A soul survivor on the river (I might've been queen) But it won't stop A soul survivor on the river But it won't stop (I know the secret combination) A soul survivor on the river (I might've been queen) But it won't stop (I know the secret combination) A soul survivor on the river (I might've been queen) But it won't stop (I know the secret combination) A soul survivor on the river (I might've been queen) But it won't stop (I know the secret combination)
