Palace in the Sun

For all the absent lovers

I think I've got a story to tell

she was a lonesome priestess

and he was enchanted by her spell

"come and live by my side

I'll sing to you all day long

we'll cause a chain reaction

find a place to call our own"

"the way she sings, I got to defy the facts

patience, my siren, soon I will reach the sun"

he started building something

a capsule with protection sheets

failure after failure

nothing could withstand the heat

she couldn't leave her people

her place was with Sun-Ra

"such a shame, my love

I'll never leave the palace in the sun"

"take your dreams and bury them down the trash

there's no chance to feel my touch"

"all those hollow promises

thoughts of everlasting bliss

I think I left them backseat

where there's peace in my mind

but the leaves in the trees

they bring her voice to my ears

evil breeze, can you see

that I will burst into tears?

apart forever, not a thing can be done

I say goodbye"

all his hopes were buried down the trash

and her songs became too sad
