Belle of the Ball (feat. Victor Wooten) feat. Victor Wooten

歌詞

Listen now – there comes the call It seems I was the Belle of the Ball I left a shoe behind me, and somebody came to find me Now I carry on behind a wall And here they march, armor on A battle cry is rising with the dawn Another war before him, at the court they all adore him, The will of The Almighty leads him on Kingdom's slow in coming But signs are all around So who will sing, 'God save the King' When Kingdom's coming, walls are tumbling down? At the gate, does he know? They wait for any scrap that he might throw And is that hunger in their eyes or golden dresses they despise? I remember I used to know The fires, does he see? They watch beneath the bridges, warily And while he flaunts another ring, the mockingbirds begin to sing I remember blue birds sang to me Kingdom's slow in coming But signs are all around So who will sing, 'God save the King' When Kingdom's coming, walls are tumbling down? Will they call for my head - I'm not the kind of girl to cry for what is said But I am aware of all the battles, all rows of empty saddles All the songs of the mothers of the dead Kingdom's slow in coming But signs are all around So who will sing, 'God save the King' When Kingdom's coming down? The songs of pretty mothers Go darkly to the sea And who will sing, 'God save the king' When darkness falls on me? Oh, I'd go back to Kansas Before houses landed there Kingdom Come was worlds away And light was everywhere, everywhere
