I'm a new pair of eyes

every time I am born

An original mind

because I just died

And I'm scanning the horizon for someone recognizing

that I might have been queen

For every sun that sets there is a new one dawning

For every empire crushed there is a brand new nation

Let the waters rise

I've ridden each tide

from the gates of the city

where the first born died

And I might have been queen

I remember the girl in the fields with no name

She had a love

Oh but the river won't stop for me

No the river won't stop for me

I'm a new pair of eyes

an original mind

With my senses of old

and the heart of a giant

And I'm searching through the wreckage for some great recollection

that I might have been queen

For every sage that falls

there's an ancient child

And I might have been queen

I remember the girl in the fields with no name

She had a love

Oh but the river won't stop for me

No the river won't stop for me

I look up to the stars with my perfect memory

I lived through it all, and my future's no shock to me

I look down, but I see no tragedy

I look up to my past, my spirit running free

I look down, I look down, and I'm there in history

Oh I'm a soul survivor

(Soul survivor on the river, but it won't stop)

I might have been queen!

(Soul survivor on the river, but it won't stop)

I know the secret combination
