Verse 1
I drove the horses, chasing after you,
All through the night I followed shadows’ clue.
But with the dawn, worn out from that pursuit,
I stopped upon the meadow, cold and mute.
My heart kept whispering, it sang to me:
“You’re far from where your destiny should be.”
And though the world had turned to dust and pain,
I rushed ahead to meet my fate again.

Verse 2 I sleep so lightly, guarded every night,
But sometimes I fall through into the light.
And then I see you
not in dreams alone,
But standing in the morning’s silver tone.
A maiden dressed in red, a vision bright,
A princess young, a ghost of purest light.

Verse 3 I see her now not on a throne of gold,
Where silent guards protect the life she holds.
But in my bed, she warms me through the storm,
Her hand has touched my dream with breath so warm.
It wasn’t sleep a fracture in my soul:
Into her royal chambers I had stole.
Drunk on her breath, the world began to spin,
Breaking the laws to taste forbidden sin.

Pre-Chorus
Through castle walls, past guards into the gloom,
I melted into beauty in her room.
She is his crown, his shelter and his life
The woman whom the King calls his own wife.

Chorus
It’s a spark of love on the edge of the night,
In my empty bed her ghost in the light.
My soul has crossed where the dawn cannot rise,
There in my arms… lies the King’s cherished bride.
There in my arms… the beloved wife of the King.

Outro Beloved wife of the King… (The King’s wife…)
