Thrill is gone thrill is gone away-ay-ay-aay
thrill is gone away-ay-ay-aay from me
even the chance or possibility
chance or possibility gone away from me
daughter of the queen in her open skirt
daughter in her open silk skirt
fold over fold one fold over one other fold.

Hours of beauty dance of the hours of beauty
no place saved in the dance of the hours
no place saved in the dance for me
no place in the dance
in the dance of the hours of beauty
daughter of the queen in her open skirt
daughter in her open silk skirt
fold over fold one fold over one other fold
folds like the folds of a flower unfolded.

It brings big tea–e-ea-ah–e-ea-ah–eeaahrs
I’m drowning in my tears
drowning I’m drowning in my own tears
daughter of the queen in her open skirt
daughter in her open silk skirt
fold over fold one fold over one other fold.

No one says one no one says one more word to me
no one now to say one word to me
no one says one word to me to say love
no one and death becomes a possibility
if no one says one word to say love
if there’s no one to say one word to say love
if there’s no one to say one word to say love
if there’s no one if there’s no word
death becomes a possibility
and death becomes a possibility for me
daughter of the queen in her open skirt
daughter in her open silk skirt
fold over fold one fold over one other fold
folds like the folds of a flower unfolded
her hand against the folds of fingers of her hand
fingers of her hand in a glove
fingers of her hand in a black net glove
a black net glove against the folds.
