I Might Have Been Queen

Lyrics for I Might Have Been Queen

I'm a new pair of eyes Every time I am born An original mind Because I just died And I'm scanning the horizon for someone recognizing That I might have 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've ridden each tide From the gates of the city Where the first born died And I might have 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, oh, the river won't stop for me I'm a new pair of eyes An original mind With my senses of old And the heart of a giant And I'm searching through the wreckage For some great recollection That I might have been queen For every sage that falls There's an ancient child And I might have 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, oh, the river won't stop for me I look up to the stars with my perfect memory I lived through it all, and my future's no shock to me I look down, but I see no tragedy I look up to the star till I find my destiny I look up to my past, my spirit running free I look down, I look down, and I'm there in history Oh, I'm a soul survivor Soul survivor on the river, but it won't stop Soul survivor on the river I might have been queen (but it won't stop) Soul survivor on the river, but it won't stop I know my secret combination Soul survivor on the river I might have been queen (but it won't stop) Soul survivor on the river, but it won't stop I know my secret combination Soul survivor on the river I might have been queen (but it won't stop) I know the secret combination Soul survivor on the river I might have been queen (but it won't stop) I know the secret combination Soul survivor on the river I might have been queen (but it won't stop) I know the secret combination
