《Queen Of Love(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] Queen Of Love (LP Version) - The Incredible String Band

[00:00:01] A strong power calls from the left hand

[00:00:05] Across the waters deep

[00:00:09] A strong power calls from the left hand

[00:00:14] Let all things sleep or weep

[00:00:19] Oh the queen of love you have unwove my eyes

[00:00:26] And my heart will not sleep

[00:00:33] The eye would sleep but the mind would rise

[00:00:42] I must needs walk down God's eyebrows

[00:00:47] And along the street of his eyes

[00:00:52] Look for me and you will see me in my red cloak

[00:00:56] Swimming determined

[00:00:59] As God's blood flows

[00:01:07] Creatures of grief you beg from the thief

[00:01:15] I will not carry home your sacks of sorrow

[00:01:22] But I will pay the fiddler good silver if he smiles

[00:01:29] Pray God he see tomorrow

[00:01:38] And the fine fine girls that are into it

[00:01:42] And my eyes with salt water swim

[00:01:48] And we disputing with a brittle gaiety

[00:01:53] Upon the world's rim

[00:01:57] If I sought to love you with my body

[00:02:03] It would be with a bent back

[00:02:07] Unto the day of doom

[00:02:20] Oh the Queen of Love

[00:02:25] I am in her heart

[00:02:28] She is in my room

[00:02:35] And together alone we clasp hands

[00:02:38] And in each other's eyes walk the endless shore

[00:02:50] And below I have my duty to perform in the song

[00:02:57] And that that I was

[00:02:59] You will see it no more

[00:03:08] The snow is on the hills of my heart

[00:03:13] And to speak is to die

[00:03:19] The men at arms do seek to mark me

[00:03:23] And the monks raise hue and cry

[00:03:28] Seek me in vain on Golgotha

[00:03:33] Or in fear's hollow

[00:03:37] For the way I take today

[00:03:42] Only the true may follow

[00:03:49] The ancestors in stone armour

[00:03:53] Calling for loyalty untrue

[00:03:58] Seek to make a zigzag of the arrow's flight

[00:04:07] It is so swaddled in the bands of form

[00:04:11] But I am girdled with the storm

[00:04:16] And cloaked with the night

[00:04:21] I am not to be seen or found

[00:04:26] Save only in what I cause

[00:04:30] Standing outside on the inside outside

[00:04:34] Perfectingness and flaws

[00:04:40] How will I say where I end

[00:04:45] Or where you begin

[00:04:50] How will I say what shall I play

[00:04:53] Shall it be you or the wild wind

[00:05:00] As Pan with the unsane eyes

[00:05:06] Or with the wild horns

[00:05:10] Or when I am crowned with the paper crown

[00:05:15] Or with the crown of thorns

[00:05:23] A strong power compels distortion from the right hand

[00:05:32] Fleece to the grey wolves

[00:05:36] Fangs to the grey sheep

[00:05:42] But the Queen of Love she strokes

[00:05:47] My body alive that I do not sleep

[00:05:56] The doctor brews potions and pills

[00:06:01] To open his own front door

[00:06:05] And the locksmith makes strong bolts

[00:06:08] To bar his gates to every new breeze that blows

[00:06:14] Shall I now put lion's ears upon my ears

[00:06:19] Hear every sound as a roar

[00:06:22] Shall I now put mouse's eyes upon my eyes

[00:06:27] Gauge the moon for size against my paw

[00:06:32] While the Queen of Love

[00:06:37] She sings to me

[00:06:38] From above and beyond the world

[00:06:47] And I observe my mind

[00:06:50] It is playing ignorant boy

[00:06:55] While at her feet I am curled

[00:07:03] And I remember all female movements so well

[00:07:14] Of such a form to bring much joy and ease much care

[00:07:25] To perfume and let fall the coloured gown

[00:07:33] And to let down the curling hair

[00:07:40] But now I play seed thrower

[00:07:44] And I will play three-legged man

[00:07:49] I will play dream weaver and day bringer

[00:07:54] And catch as catch can

[00:07:59] While the Queen of Love

[00:08:05] She swims like a silver dove in my mind's room

[00:08:16] And my body sleep walks down the road

[00:08:24] In a warm dark swoon
