The Wealthiest Queen
Luluc Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Gold and silver and blue
The sky above you glistens all day and all night
Jewels of delight
Dreamy waves lift and sway beneath you
And glimmer with the sun and moonlight
Endless delight
A warm blanket, pattern of the sky
A strong body to cradle you all night

Gold and silver and blue
The sky above you
Give yourself over to the riches above you
Dreamy waves lift and sway beneath you
Give yourself over to the waters that hold you
A warm blanket, pattern of the sky
A strong body to cradle you all night
Here, I'm such a long way from home
I've no bed, no blanket I can call my own
Still as I lie here on my back in the sea looking up

I'm as wealthy as a queen
Mmm
