I Might Have Been Queen

(j. obstoj, r. hine, j. west-oram)

Producer: rupert hine

Albums: private dancer (84), what's love got to do with it (93)

Remixed by chris lord-alge for the what's love got to do with soundtrack





I'm a new pair of eyes everytime i am born

An original mind because i just died

And i'm scanning the horizon

For someone recognizing that i might have been queen

For every sun that sets there is a new one dawning

For every empire crushed there is a brand new nation

Let the waters rise, i have ridden each tide

From the gates of the city where the first born died



And i might have been queen

I remember the girl in the fields with no name

She had a love

But the rivers won't stop for me

No, the rivers won't stop to me



I'm a new pair of eyes, an original mind

With my senses of old and the heart of a giant

And i'm searching through the wreckage

For some recollection that i might have been queen

For every sage that falls there's an ancient child



And i might have been queen

I remember the girl in the fields with no name

She had a love

But the rivers won't stop for me

No, the rivers won't stop to me



I look up to the stars with my perfect memory

I look through it all and my future is no shock to me

I look down but i see no tragedy

I look up to the stars till i find my destiny

I look up to my past, a spirit running free

I look down, i look down and i'm there in history

I'm a soul survivor



A soul survivor

On the river

But it won't stop
