King of bohemia

Richard Thompson

Composed by: Richard Thompson
Let me rock you in my arms 
I'll hold you safe and small 
A refugee from the seraphim 
In your rich-girl rags and all 

Did your dreams die young, were they too hard won 
Did you reach too high and fall 
And there is no rest for the ones God blessed 
And he blessed you best of all 

Your eyes seem from a different face 
They've seen that much that soon 
Your cheek too cold, too pale to shine 
Like an old and waning moon 

And there is no peace, no true release 
No secret place to crawl 
And there is no rest for the ones God blessed 
And he blessed you best of all 

If tears unshed could heal your heart 
If words unsaid could sway 
Then watch you melt into the night 
Adieu, and rue the day 

Did your dreams die young, were they too hard won 
Did you reach too high and fall 
And there is no rest for the ones God blessed 
And he blessed you best of all
