Lyrics for Queen of the Slipstream by Van Morrison
You're the queen of the slipstream with eyes that shine
You have crossed many waters to be here
You have drank of the fountain of innocence
And experienced the long cold wintry years
There's a dream where the contents are visible
Where the poetic champions compose
Will you breathe not a word of this secrecy?
Will you still be my special rose?
Goin' away far across the sea
But I'll be back for you
I'll tell you everything I know
Baby, everything is true
Will the blush still remain on your cheeks, my love?
In the light, in the light always seen in your head?
Gold and sliver they placed at your feet, my dear
But I know you chose me instead, alright
Girl I'm goin' away far across the sea
But I'll be back for you
Tell you everything I know
Baby, everything is true
You're the Queen of the slipstream, I love you so
You have crossed many waters to be here
And you drink, and you drink at the fountains of innocence
An experience you know very well
You're the Queen, you're the Queen
Queen of the slipstream, you're the Queen
Queen of the slipstream, you're the Queen
I've seen you smoothly slide on the snow, you're the Queen
Queen of the slipstream, you're the Queen
You can run and lead, you can run and lead, you're the Queen
Queen of the slipstream, you're the Queen
You're the Queen
You're the Queen
You're the Queen
You're the Queen
