Roxy Music - Beauty Queen lyrics

Valerie, please, believe
It never could work out
The time to make plans has passed faded away
Ooh, the way you look
Makes my starry eyes shiver then I look away
Too much for one day one thing we share
Is an ideal of beauty treasure so rare
That even devils might care

Your swimming pool eyes
In sea breezes they flutter
The coconut tears heavy-lidded they shed
Swaying palms at your feet
You're the pride of your street

While you worship the sun
Summer lover of fun
Gold number with neighbors
Who said that you'll go far?
Maybe someday be a star
A fast-mover like you
And your dreams will all come true

All of my hope and my inspiration
I drew from you
Our life's pattern's drawn in sand
But the winds could not erase
The memory of your face deep in the night
Plying very strange cargo
Our soul ships pass by
Solo trips to the stars in the sky
Gliding so far that the eye cannot follow
Where do they go? We'll never know
