King of Bohemia

King of Bohemia - Linda Ronstadt Lyrics

Let me rock you in my arms

I'll hold you safe and small

A refugee from the Seraphim

With your rich girl rags and all



Did your dreams die young, were they too hard won

Did you reach too high and fall?

And there is no rest for the ones God blessed

And He blessed you best of all



Your eyes seem from a different face

They've seen that much that soon

Your cheek's too cold, too pale to shine

Like an old and waning moon



And there is no peace, no true release

No secret place to crawl

And there is no rest for the ones God blessed

And He blessed you best of all



If tears unshed could heal your heart

If words unsaid could sway

Watch you melt into the night

With adieu and rue the day



Did your dreams die young, were they too hard won

Did you reach too high and fall?

And there is no rest for the ones God blessed

And He blessed you best of all
