Bismarck

Lyrics

Little queen, she took her leave 
told her daddy he would never see her again 
this time let's not make believe I'm going 
The young prince he was quite convinced 
his mother's god is not like his 
so his god forgives 
so he forgave her as he was leaving 

Old bus station, 5 AM 
there's people going everywhere 
some come home, some stay away, no matter 
lonely prince till the queen came in 
he looked at her, she looked at him 
nothing would ever be the same, not ever 

It's strange to feel so light 
I'm not stoned, I'm hypnotized 
yeah, there's something in my veins 
and I won't ever be the same again 
hold on, hold on 

They talked all day till after dark 
left the Windy City 'round 10:00 
on and on, they ended up in Bismarck 
sleeping in the doorway there 
the prince and queen, they didn't care 
they had each other, that was more than they could dream of 

The old bus station, 5 AM 
there's people going everywhere 
some come home, some stay away, no matter 
he was a lonely prince until the queen came in 
she looked at him, she looked at him 
nothing would ever be the same, not ever 

It's strange to feel so light 
I'm not stoned, I'm hypnotized 
now there's something in my bones 
'cause I won't ever be alone again 
hold on, hold on 

The prince and queen, they sang their song 
policeman told them move along 
truck stop, shower, candy bar, they're rolling 

Old bus station, 5 AM 
there's people going everywhere 
some come home, some stay away, no matter 
but the lonely prince till the queen came in 
he looked at her, and she looked at him 
nothing would ever be the same, not ever 

It's strange to feel so light 
I'm not stoned, I'm hypnotized 
oh, there's something in my veins 
and I can't ever be the same again 

Yeah, it's strange to feel so light 
I'm not stoned, I'm hypnotized 
oh, there's something in your eyes 
and I won't ever see the same again 

Strange to feel so light 
I'm not stoned, I'm hypnotized 
there's something in your eyes 
and I can't ever be the same again 
hold on, hold on
