In the international rumble
|
She takes a chance and comes to me
|
And falling through the cracks we tumble
|
Not far at all but enough to see
|
We've come to rest our backs against the rubble
|
Of a future in uncertainty
|
|
"And I'm so glad you're here" she said
|
"And I hate that you're here" she said
|
"I wish I didn't need you so much
|
To be here"
|
|
It's funny meeting anyone this way
|
But there she goes
|
Walking her last runway
|
The queen of Sarajevo
|
|
We communicate in broken English
|
And nervous sighs and apprehension
|
As fascinated we are standing witness
|
No alcohol could quell the tension
|
No kind of clever joke or small talk in this
|
No fate denies our soul connection
|
|
"And I'm so glad you're here" she said
|
"And I hate that you're here" she said
|
"I wish I didn't need you so much
|
To be here"
|
|
It's funny meeting anyone this way
|
But there she goes
|
Walking her last runway
|
The queen of Sarajevo
|
|
They say that in the west the blues comes easy
|
And the night belongs to the one who plays
|
But it's the ancient souls that breathe them deeply
|
For the bluest heart is the one who stays
|
|
It's funny meeting anyone this way
|
But there she goes
|
Watch her walk her last runway
|
The queen of Sarajevo
|
|
And it's so funny to be living this way
|
But it's time to go
|
Leave you standing on the runway
|
The queen of Sarajevo
|
The queen of Sarajevo
|
