[00:00:00] The King And Queen Of England - Sandy Denny

[00:00:01] Written by：Sandy Denny

[00:00:46] Bring back the king to his throne

[00:00:53] And the smile may return to the queen

[00:01:01] How can she rule on her own

[00:01:06] When the glory of

[00:01:08] What might have been is all she feels

[00:01:18] The fire still burns in the hearth

[00:01:25] The music still plays for her pleasure

[00:01:32] But the air is as cold as the death

[00:01:37] And the soft melodies only

[00:01:43] Measure her bittersweet tears

[00:01:49] Every note of each song brings a vision

[00:01:57] Of love and of pain back to me

[00:02:04] Like a captive I've locked in a prison

[00:02:11] And whose liberty rests upon me

[00:02:21] But I can't find the key

[00:02:28] You may never be free

[00:02:34] The servants still hang on his every word

[00:02:40] But his youthfulness passes him by

[00:02:48] The king watches only the seasons

[00:02:53] And they watching him see his sparkling eye

[00:03:01] Holds no diamond any more

[00:03:05] In the folds which begin every ending

[00:03:12] I wish I forever could lie

[00:03:20] But the cloth I wear is not for mending

[00:03:26] For what tailor could stitch up

[00:03:30] The torn blue sky

[00:03:36] So the battle is done

[00:03:43] Nobody won
