lyrics

I said
The prince lay up despaired
Up there he sent a message from his bed
His courier was sent sixteen flights of stairs
And barged through crowds
On a bridge not made with hands
To relay his pledge
Through treszles of our town
Your head, it all went to your head
And he forced his way through
Down the steps of the courtyard
From the innermost palace
All the way to the furthest corner
There’s you
In a corner out of time
Past fields of florets that the earth had drained away
A signal you sensed that you should run or hide
But you sat tethered to a mirror staring back
And you dream and dream
For a day that never comes
And you dream and dream
For a time that never was
And he forced his way through curl after wave
Until his knees failed him
From the innermost palace
To the furthest corner
