Queen Of My Heart Lyrics - New Model Army

To the Queen of my Heart, from the King of Nowhere 

I have watched you arming, and how you wave your sword in the air; 

always fighting the shadows as they move behind you, 

and the beating wings that hover around you . . . 

To the queen of my heart, from the king of nowhere 

It's a shallow sky that holds us in; you can reach right out 

and touch the edge with just one outstretched hand and feel 

the dark come closing in. 

And there's nowhere far enough away from here; 

the ringing ears and the closing air, and the cities and deserts all beat the same; 

the radio waves crackle and phase, the satellites spinning slowly round. 

The radar towers search and call 

to the Queen of my Heart, from the King of Nowhere . . . 

This is the great world calling to the last crusader; 

In the rush of the lifeblood coming out of the sunrise . . . 

And you're the Queen of my Heart . . . and I'm the King of Nowhere.
