Lyrics

With a quivering voice
You spoke the word
Shadow came between us
Sharp as a sword
Gone is my gladness
And vanished my pride
'Cause luck didn't stay on our side
Leaped in luxury
I cried for the moon
But the game is out
It all ended too soon
Awakening came as the belt from the blue
At last from a sheen to be true
Oh my ruthless queen
You're still the treasure of my dream
It's the twinkle in your eyes
That took me by surprise
Oh my ruthless queen
I just can't accept our love has been
I bear you no malice
You show no remorse
Love is dead and gone
It was no endless source
Your sudden leave was the finishing stroke
Considering everything grow
Oh my ruthless queen
You're still the treasure of my dream
It's the twinkle in your eyes
That took me by surprise
Oh my ruthless queen
I just can't accept our love has been
Please don't tell me
You couldn't care less
While I feel like a ship in distress
Oh my ruthless queen
I just can't accept our love has been
I can't bear to see you go
But it's all part of the show you perform
Letting romance fade little by little
Our love was precious but too brittle
Oh my ruthless queen
You're still the treasure of my dream
It's the twinkle in your eyes
That took me by surprise
Oh my ruthless queen
I just can't accept our love has been
Please don't tell me
You couldn't care less
While I feel like a ship in distress
Oh my ruthless queen
I just can't accept our love has been
