White Queen (As It Began) lyrics

[Segue: Intro]
So sad, her eyes
Smiling, dark eyes
So sad, her eyes
As it began

[Verse 1]
On such a breathless night as this
Upon my brow, the lightest kiss
I walked alone
And all around the air did say
My lady soon will stir this way
In sorrow known

[Bridge]
The white Queen walks
And the night grows pale
Stars of lovingness in her hair

[Chorus]
Needing, unheard
Pleading one word
So sad, my eyes
She cannot see

[Verse 2]
How did thee fare? What have thee seen?
The mother of the willow green
I call her name
And 'neath her window have I stayed
I loved the footsteps that she made
And when she came
[Bridge]
White Queen, how my heart did ache
And dry my lips, no word would make
So still I wait

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
My goddess hear my darkest fear
I speak too late
It's forevermore that I wait

[Outro]
Dear friend, goodbye
No tears in my eyes
So sad, it ends
As it began
