lyrics

The Princess

she dreams girlish stories
while she's awake
and asks me to be
the king in this tale

she's so sure of her role
I'm having a laugh
cause this little actress
has gotten my heart

then she stops pretending
and sits by my side
she wraps me in her arms
I melt like ice

now we are watching a film
she forgets about maths
I forget for a moment
that her world will be tough

she stops the transmission
to tell me a tell
about how strong
is maiden with plaids

she dwells in my veins
and I dwell in hers
she's the blessing
that I never deserved

'cause life is a warfare
and s stranger soujourn
her happiness is all
and best I can do

when she asks me about God
and all that stuff
I tell her a story
hoping she understood

in everything we see
a hand's been involved
and yet our essence
is imperishable

don't dwell in the future
it'll come soon enough
'cause present's the thing
the only we've got

we are the doubter
and we are the doubt
our mind cannot help
all our idle hopes

what's that it matters,
if anything at all?
I think it's the courage
we use to approach

'til the sun grows cold
and the seas dry up
my love for you'll stay
right with your heart

she dreams girlish stories
while she's awake
and asks me to be
the king in this tale
