peter hammill - empress's clothes كلمات الأغنية

she’s here now, perfume coiled like a thuggie scarf –
such a powerful drug to make you so naked and clean
and you want to tell her
so much to disclose
this idea you’ve got to sell her
a new set of empress’s clothes

who was that woman in the masquerade
do those eyes still give you fever?
who was that woman in the mystery-play
do you still want to please her?
where is the woman who can offer escape
do you look for your freedom?
you see her and you want to tell her
so much to disclose
this idea you’ve got to sell her

you want her to wear that finery
the style that’s never seen
you’re trying to break the deadlock
of this strangleholding scene…
oh, look, a new set of empress’s clothes!

the here and now stands in your way;
you carry the bell, book and candle…
she won’t make you go
but she won’t let you stay
and you want to tell her
so much to disclose
this idea you’ve got to sell her
a new set of empress’s clothes

you want her to wear that finery
the style that’s never seen;
(and you want to tell her)
you’re trying to break the deadlock
of this strangleholding scene;
(there’s so much to disclose)
she makes you want to confess it all –
you don’t know what it means
but she makes you see
empress’s clothes
empress’s clothes
a new set of empress’s clothes
a new set of empress’s clothes
she makes you see empress’s clothes
she makes you see empress’s clothes
(repeat to fade)
