Van Morrison - Queen Of The Slipstream Lyrics

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
And will you still be my special rose

Goin' away far across the sea, but I'll be back for you
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

Well, 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 your drink at the fountains of innocence
An experience you know very well

You're the Queen, Queen of the slipstream
You're the Queen, Queen of the slipstream
You're the Queen, I see you slippin' and slidin' in the snow
You're the Queen, Queen of the slipstream
You're the Queen, you come running to me, come running
You're the Queen, Queen of the slipstream
You're the Queen....
