There was a boy let’s call him Roy So the story goes, he’s got a feeling he can’t fake He likes a girl we’ll call her Pearl Who’s diamond always shows a kind of shimmer in her shake Wouldn’t you know, there was a Joe Who felt familiar flames And had Pearl caught up in a daze And so our boy we call Roy was forced to watch and wait And live his life off in the wings This feeling that has grown Oh so fast Reeling down A rapid raft That is on its own path Still we scream Dangers a laugh You and I down the open road You are the queen inside my fortress Dripping down, canvas of my dreams You are the paint inside my portrait Well here we go, down the golden road You are the queen inside my fortress Lock the door, throw away the key You are the paint inside my portrait SongtextePainting our soul Painting our soul Painting our soul Time sure does fly with the wrong guy Our Pearl began to know Once ol’ Joe failed to make her faint She felt the void while our boy Roy Was patient as a dog Whose bone was wrapped under the tree Finally she set the terms in stone Kicked Joe the road She checked his baggage at the claim And so our girl that we call Pearl Was reminded that a stone Looks best atop a proper ring This feeling that has grown Oh so fast Reeling down A rapid raft That is on its own path Still we scream Dangers a laugh You and I down the open road You are the queen inside my fortress Dripping down, canvas of my dreams You are the paint inside my portrait Here we go, down the golden road You are the queen inside my fortress Lock the door, throw away the key You are the paint inside my portrait Painting our soul Painting our soul Painting our soul There was a boy let’s call him Roy So the story goes He gathered up all of his strength Found his girl we call Pearl Stare into her soul Asking the privilege of a date Finally my half is now a whole Says Pearl as she rejoiced She checked that baggage at the claim To join our boy that we call Roy Who no longer has to wait To live their life off in the wings This feeling that has grown Oh so fast Reeling down A rapid raft That is on its own path Still we scream Dangers a laugh You and I down the open road You are the queen inside my fortress Dripping down, canvas of my dreams You are the paint inside my portrait Well here we go, down the golden road You are the queen inside my fortress Lock the door, throw away the key You are the paint inside my portrait Painting our soul Painting our soul Painting our soul Aus Songtexte Mania
