Queen Of Love (LP Version) - The Incredible String Band[00:00:00]
A strong power calls from the left hand[00:00:01]
Across the waters deep[00:00:05]
A strong power calls from the left hand[00:00:09]
Let all things sleep or weep[00:00:14]
Oh the queen of love you have unwove my eyes[00:00:19]
And my heart will not sleep[00:00:26]
The eye would sleep but the mind would rise[00:00:33]
I must needs walk down God's eyebrows[00:00:42]
And along the street of his eyes[00:00:47]
Look for me and you will see me in my red cloak[00:00:52]
Swimming determined[00:00:56]
As God's blood flows[00:00:59]
Creatures of grief you beg from the thief[00:01:07]
I will not carry home your sacks of sorrow[00:01:15]
But I will pay the fiddler good silver if he smiles[00:01:22]
Pray God he see tomorrow[00:01:29]
And the fine fine girls that are into it[00:01:38]
And my eyes with salt water swim[00:01:42]
And we disputing with a brittle gaiety[00:01:48]
Upon the world's rim[00:01:53]
If I sought to love you with my body[00:01:57]
It would be with a bent back[00:02:03]
Unto the day of doom[00:02:07]
Oh the Queen of Love[00:02:20]
I am in her heart[00:02:25]
She is in my room[00:02:28]
And together alone we clasp hands[00:02:35]
And in each other's eyes walk the endless shore[00:02:38]
And below I have my duty to perform in the song[00:02:50]
And that that I was[00:02:57]
You will see it no more[00:02:59]
The snow is on the hills of my heart[00:03:08]
And to speak is to die[00:03:13]
The men at arms do seek to mark me[00:03:19]
And the monks raise hue and cry[00:03:23]
Seek me in vain on Golgotha[00:03:28]
Or in fear's hollow[00:03:33]
For the way I take today[00:03:37]
Only the true may follow[00:03:42]
The ancestors in stone armour[00:03:49]
Calling for loyalty untrue[00:03:53]
Seek to make a zigzag of the arrow's flight[00:03:58]
It is so swaddled in the bands of form[00:04:07]
But I am girdled with the storm[00:04:11]
And cloaked with the night[00:04:16]
I am not to be seen or found[00:04:21]
Save only in what I cause[00:04:26]
Standing outside on the inside outside[00:04:30]
Perfectingness and flaws[00:04:34]
How will I say where I end[00:04:40]
Or where you begin[00:04:45]
How will I say what shall I play[00:04:50]
Shall it be you or the wild wind[00:04:53]
As Pan with the unsane eyes[00:05:00]
Or with the wild horns[00:05:06]
Or when I am crowned with the paper crown[00:05:10]
Or with the crown of thorns[00:05:15]
A strong power compels distortion from the right hand[00:05:23]
Fleece to the grey wolves[00:05:32]
Fangs to the grey sheep[00:05:36]
But the Queen of Love she strokes[00:05:42]
My body alive that I do not sleep [00:05:47]
The doctor brews potions and pills[00:05:56]
To open his own front door[00:06:01]
And the locksmith makes strong bolts[00:06:05]
To bar his gates to every new breeze that blows[00:06:08]
Shall I now put lion's ears upon my ears[00:06:14]
Hear every sound as a roar[00:06:19]
Shall I now put mouse's eyes upon my eyes[00:06:22]
Gauge the moon for size against my paw[00:06:27]
While the Queen of Love[00:06:32]
She sings to me[00:06:37]
From above and beyond the world[00:06:38]
And I observe my mind[00:06:47]
It is playing ignorant boy[00:06:50]
While at her feet I am curled[00:06:55]
And I remember all female movements so well[00:07:03]
Of such a form to bring much joy and ease much care[00:07:14]
To perfume and let fall the coloured gown[00:07:25]
And to let down the curling hair [00:07:33]
But now I play seed thrower[00:07:40]
And I will play three-legged man[00:07:44]
I will play dream weaver and day bringer[00:07:49]
And catch as catch can[00:07:54]
While the Queen of Love[00:07:59]
She swims like a silver dove in my mind's room[00:08:05]
And my body sleep walks down the road[00:08:16]
In a warm dark swoon[00:08:24]
