Hearts and vains of the deepest blue
Drawn from paint to speak the truth
All the ghosts we have seen
Of kings and queens
They're portraits of portraits we see
No I don't know how to look away
No I don't know what they will say
But maybe they just show
What happens when we go...
Gestures, poses on palace walls
Starry eyes have seen it all
With a face to keep
They'll never sleep
They're portraits of portraits we see
No I don't know what they will say
No I don't know how too look away
But maybe they just show
What happens when we go...
