Van Morrison - Queen of the Slipstream lyrics

You're the Queen of the slipstream
With eyes that shine
You have crossed many waters to be here
You have drank of the fountain of innocence
And experienced the long cold wintry years

There's a dream where the
Contents are visible
Where the poetic champions compose
Will you breathe not a word of this secrecy
And will you still be my special rose?
Goin' away far across the sea
But I'll be back for you
Tell you everything I know
Baby everything is true

Will the blush still remain
On your cheeks my love
In the light always seen in your head?
Gold and sliver they placed
At your feet my dear
But I know you chose me instead

Goin' away far across the sea
But I'll be back for you
Tell you everything I know
Baby everything is true

You're the Queen of the slipstream
I love you so
You have crossed many waters to be here
And you drink at the fountains of innocence
An experience you know very well
