You were born a princess of Russia
But you can be my queen of music and beauty
Listening to your voice can drive me to tears
Yet I want to hear you sing in the City of Love
And for your poetry to whistle between your teeth
Making its merry way through my ears
I would like to attend one of your extravagant mansion parties
So we can sneak away and keep our love unspoken
I can relieve the pressures of you being under such suspicion
By helping you travel thousands of miles away
With our love unbroken
With my head in the clouds and my feet on the ground
I open my eyes and take a look around
And I see angels
But they look nothing like you
And I swear that’s true
I see stars in your eyes and fluorescent lights
I look at you like I look at the moon
And I see my guide
Through the darkest nights
My brain runs a thousand miles
I can feel my skin tingle with a sort of nervousness
And I stumble on my words but you soothe me with a kiss
I see those lips
And such beauty
I see stars in your eyes and fluorescent lights
I look at you like I look at the moon
And I see my guide
Through the darkest nights
Finally, the night has come
I grab your hand and we look up above
And we see the galaxy
But it doesn’t compare to you
And I swear its true
