The Queen of Hearts

A Tribute Song for Princess Diana

yes, I know this text is terribly sentimental and very badly written, but I was really shocked when she died and I just had to write something (and by the way, I wrote this before Elton John took his turn, so at least the idea to write a tribute song was my own)... don't judge me too harshly.


A princess from a fairy-tale, you came into our lives
So beautiful in a wedding-dress, so beautiful and shy
We were all in love with you
Yes we were all in love with you
Diana
For everyone who needed you a had a soothing word
You tried to make life better, yes you tried to change the world
You were doing all you could
Yes you were doing all you could
Diana

You were the Queen of Hearts
You were the Queen of Hearts,
of people's hearts...

Today, the flowers at your door and black clothes all around
The English used to hide their tears but now they cry aloud
We can't believe it's true
No we still can't believe it's true
Diana
The headlines in the papers cut our souls like killing knives
The heavy load of fame has crushed the flower of your life
We never shall forget
No we never shall forget
Diana

We've lost our Queen of Hearts
We've lost our Queen of Hearts
of people's hearts...
