SWEET (Lyric)
(aka: The Queen Always Get's What the Queen Wants)

I can still remember, the first time that I saw your lovely face.
You were standing with the queen, ceding to her pomp and circumstance.
Wish I could have seen our future, reflected in those pretty eyes.
Then I would have not made choices that led to our true love's demise.

But you were way too young, the queen she was the older one.
So how was I supposed to know, that still for me you were the one?

Oh but the queen always gets the queen wants. (Doesn't she Sweet?)
Doesn't matter a damn what's best for anybody else.
Oh yeah the queen always gets what the queen wants.
So tell me: “Why did that have to be so, Sweet?”

Then I watched you come of age, while I did hard time for the queen.
Beauty, grace and a heart of gold, a combination seldom seen.
So many times that I had wished, that she were you and you the one with me.
An insecure and selfish child, the queen and I could never be.

So I escaped her scene. (The queen she would not let me be)
I wanted you to know my heart. I did not dare, I knew from the start:

Oh that the queen always gets what the queen wants. (Doesn't she Sweet?)
Doesn't matter a damn what's best for anybody else!
Oh but the queen always gets what the queen wants.
So tell me: “Why did that have to be so, Sweet?”

Like a lightening strike one day, you called me I was workin' in LA.
Though some time had passed between us, I knew your sweet voice right away.
My heart soared when I discovered, that you had always felt the same as me.
Ran to you, left my life behind me, I was sure you were my destiny!

But then the queen caught wind, and with her guile our love she would assail.
I never dreamed that truth and light against evil pride would not prevail.

But then the queen always gets what the queen wants. (Doesn't she Sweet?)
Doesn't matter a damn what's best for anybody else!
Oh yeah the queen always gets the queen wants.
So tell me: “Why did that have to be so Sweet?”

You once told me that I'd be alright without you,
and that it was best for all concerned to let the queen have her way.
But after fifteen years of gray skies raining blue-eyed tears,
I still haven't found my way back to that man I used to be....

And all because the queen always gets what the queen wants. (Doesn't she Sweet?)
Doesn't matter a damn what's best for anybody else!
Oh yeah the queen always gets what the queen wants.
So tell me: “Why did that have to be so, Sweet?”

Oh but the queen always gets what the queen wants. (Tell me why is that so, Sweet?)
Oh yeah the queen always gets what the queen wants. (Tell me why is that so, Sweet?)
And still the queen always gets what the queen wants.
So tell me: “Why does that have to be so, Sweet?”
