"Queen Of The Sea" lyrics - NORAH JONES

If I was the Queen of the Sea
And came upon you suddenly
Would love really set us both free?
It's so hard to receive what could finally be

Two hearts can be beating in bloom
Though not even in the same room
And I was a lover it's true
Though I feel like a fool
I'm a lover of you

I forgot myself
Did you take the breath out of me?
I forgot to lose myself
And now we're just tragic thieves playing make believe

If you were the king of the gloom
And found me stuck in my doom
Would we turn away from the graves
Of mistakes that we've made trying not to resume?
And go boom

You forgot yourself
And darkness explodes out of me
I forgot to tell myself
That love isn't too far to reach
If your heart is set free
Ooh

If time wouldn't move so fast
And life could last and last
Would everyone stay in the game
That they saved or complain?
Or escape on a train?
Ooh

Oh, we forgot ourselves
And lost what it means to believe
We forgot to hold ourselves
And you made a mess out of me
But I'm finally free, ooh
Oh, you made a mess out of me
But I'm finally free, ooh
Oh, you made a mess out of me
But I'm finally free
Ooh, oh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
