Palace Guard Composer(s): Rick Nelson Performer(s): Rick Nelson
With handmade silver sparkles Like a well-dressed sequined whore Your lady-like deceptions Keep reaching out for more
And you ask me for nothing And nothings not enough And the fisherman he puts a claim on you But its nothing but a bluff
So with jealous hands tied round my back I stumble cross the floor Not knowing how to speak I keep reaching for the door
I know you know me well I say Cause Im the palace guard Remember me, we made love today At the Kings bazaar
And you look at me with eyes that never see I can feel something start to die inside of me And you speak in wordless freedoms never seen Now I realize to you its all a dream
So before you show me everything Theres something I must know Ive worked with your friend John the Geek And his sidewalk travlin show
I know your childhood tailored dreams are very well disguised So you dont have to fake it anymore its all been memorized And you speak in wordless freedoms never seen Now I realize to you its all a dream
And you speak to me with feelings As real as sealing wax As the nearness dawns the moth is gone Leaving trailless tracks
All you village people Sing your songs of the morning sunlit sky Dont you think its time we moved along Said the raven to the fly
