Ellen Foley - The Shuttered Palace lyrics

To the sons of Europe:
Won’t you come inside my shuttered palace
And I am the bride
Now I’m a woman, I walk past your café
To the sons of Europe, I call out and say

Now as I stroll down your boulevard
You hear those Fiats, and taxis
Blow their horns so hard
When I go out walking flocks of
Birds rise from the square
And all the Seigneurs and Monsieurs
Pull up to the curb

To the sons of Europe:
Won’t you come inside my shuttered palace
And I am the bride
Now I’m a woman, I walk past your café
To the sons of Europe, I call out and say
Je serai a votre mariage je suis femme

A-a-a-h

To thе sons of Europe:
Won’t you come inside my shuttеred palace
And I am the bride
Now I’m a woman, I walk past your café
To the sons of Europe, I call out and say

My shuttered palace lies away from the sun
It isn’t far there, a little further
So why don’t you come?
You call out your offers to
Me in your mother tongue
But, you don’t act so macho when
I ask you to come

A-a-a-h

To the sons of Europe:
Won’t you come inside my shuttered palace
And I am the bride
Now I’m a woman, I walk past your café
To the sons of Europe, I call out and say

To the sons of Europe:
Won’t you come inside my shuttered palace
And I am the bride
Now I’m a woman, I walk past your café
To the sons of Europe, I call out and say
