The Palace Of Versailles - Al Stewart[00:00:00]
The wands of smoke are rising[00:00:26]
From the walls of the bastille[00:00:29]
And through the streets of paris[00:00:33]
Runs a sense of the unreal[00:00:36]
The kings have all departed[00:00:39]
There servants are nowhere[00:00:42]
We burned out their mansions[00:00:46]
In the name of robespierre[00:00:49]
And still we wait[00:00:52]
To see the day begin[00:00:55]
Our time is wasting in the wind[00:00:58]
Wondering why[00:01:05]
Wondering why it echoes[00:01:08]
Through the lonely palace of versailles[00:01:12]
Inside the midnight councils[00:01:28]
The lamps are burning low[00:01:32]
On you sit and talk all through the night[00:01:35]
But there's just no place to go[00:01:38]
And bonaparte is coming[00:01:42]
With his army from the south[00:01:45]
Marat your days are numbered[00:01:48]
And we live hand to mouth[00:01:51]
While we wait[00:01:54]
To see the day begin[00:01:57]
Our time is wasting in the wind[00:02:01]
Wondering why[00:02:07]
Wondering why it echoes[00:02:11]
Through the lonely palace of versailles[00:02:14]
The ghost of revolution[00:02:44]
Still prowls the paris streets[00:02:47]
Down all the restless centuries[00:02:50]
It wonders incomplete[00:02:54]
It speaks inside the cheap red wine[00:02:57]
Of cafe summer nights[00:03:00]
It's red and amber voices[00:03:03]
Call the cars at traffic lights[00:03:06]
Why do you wait[00:03:09]
To see the day begin[00:03:12]
Your time is wasting in the wind[00:03:16]
Wondering why[00:03:22]
Wondering why it echoes[00:03:26]
Through the lonely palace of versailles[00:03:29]
Wondering why it echoes[00:03:37]
Through the lonely palace of versailles[00:03:43]
