lyrics
A letter from the queen
As far as I’m concerned
She spoke of wine and consequence
Of love and lessons learned
And if I could I’d run until I fell to get her back
But London’s much too far away for that
My letter to the queen
Was long and overdue
I spoke of guilt and broken things
I wish I could renew
And if I could I’d scream aloud till she came running back
But London’s much too far away for that
Oh the same sun is shining down upon us all
If I could write on it in letters wide and tall
I’d say “I wont give in no matter how long you are gone”
No matter how long you’re gone
And you’d know it was for you
A letter from the queen
In a code I’d like to learn
She spoke of time, companionship
And reaping what we’ve earned
And If she said she loved me
I’d whisper that I love her back
But London’s much to far away for that
And Dublin’s much to far away for that
And Rome is much to far away for that
Oh the same sun is shining down upon us all
If I could write on it in letters wide and tall
I’d say “I wont give I no matter how long you are gone”
No matter how long you’re gone
How long you’re gone.
As far as I’m concerned
She spoke of wine and consequence
Of love and lessons learned
And if I could I’d run until I fell to get her back
But London’s much too far away for that
My letter to the queen
Was long and overdue
I spoke of guilt and broken things
I wish I could renew
And if I could I’d scream aloud till she came running back
But London’s much too far away for that
Oh the same sun is shining down upon us all
If I could write on it in letters wide and tall
I’d say “I wont give in no matter how long you are gone”
No matter how long you’re gone
And you’d know it was for you
A letter from the queen
In a code I’d like to learn
She spoke of time, companionship
And reaping what we’ve earned
And If she said she loved me
I’d whisper that I love her back
But London’s much to far away for that
And Dublin’s much to far away for that
And Rome is much to far away for that
Oh the same sun is shining down upon us all
If I could write on it in letters wide and tall
I’d say “I wont give I no matter how long you are gone”
No matter how long you’re gone
How long you’re gone.
