Lyrics for The Sweet Prince (feat. Ajay Prasanna, Johnny Marr and Anoushka Shankar)

There are stars faraway That you might reach somehow There are scars that will never heal So why pretend they've gone away Sweet prince don't be sad You were never meant to be here The sword you hold in your hand Well it's mighty blow will set you On your patterned path into the next life Found myself by your bed side Looking out across the void I was trying to say I love you But you just turned and looked away Sweet prince don't be sad You were never meant to be here The sword you hold in your hand Well it's mighty blow will set you On your patterned path into the next life
