With a quivering voice you spoke the word Shadow came between us, sharp as a sword Gone is my gladness and vanished my pride Cause luck didn't stay on our side
Lapped in luxury I cried for the moon But the game is up, it all ended too soon Awakening came as a bolt from the blue At last rumours seemed to be true
[Chorus] Oh my ruthless queen You are still the treasure of my dream It's the twinkle in your eyes That took me my surprise Oh my ruthless queen I just can't accept our love has been
I bear you no malice, you'll show no remorse Love is dead and gone it was no endless source Your sudden leave was the finishing stroke Considering everything broke
[Chorus]
Please don't tell me you couldn't care less While I feel like a ship in distress Oh my ruthless queen I just can't accept our love has been
I can't bear to see you go But it's all part of the show you perform Letting romance fade little by little Our love was precious but too brittle
