Elizabeth & Mary Lyrics - Singles - Monkey Swallows The Universe

Towers and trials from thrones and carriages 

Crossing the seas and whispering in passages 

Murder and marriages fit for a queen 

Taking me down, down, down 

Holy Moses, I never set eyes upon this queen 

Holy Ghost, am I having to die because of she? 

From six little girls, diamonds and pearls 

To two lonely queens sewn at the seams 

Well, I'm sure she must feel quite the same 

Holy Moses, I'm having to die because of she 

Holy Ghost, could I look into the eyes of such a queen? 

This fate's been waiting for me since I was alive 

Doomed and so I die 

Holy Moses, I, I'm robbed of my all except my fear 

Holy Ghost, will I come back again, come back again? 

Holy Moses, will she watch me? 

Holy Mother, will she mourn me?
