Lyrics
GYPSY PRINCESS
VERSE I:
They set off to see the world one day
They planned their escape for the middle of May
He quit his job, sold his car-
They would travel by foot, by train if it was far
And she told her family: "I love you, I do,
But these wings - I've got to see if they'll carry me through.
I'll miss you and I know, times might get rough,
But I've got to find out if love is enough."
CHORUS:
Gypsy Princess and her Gypsy King
Wandering Nomad, no wedding ring
In love with each other and times might get rough
But they wanted to find out if love was enough.
VERSE II:
I feel like I'm trapped, she says to him one day
As they are lyin' in the sun on the hardwood floor
I'm just spending all the money that I am making to get by
And my god, I can't feel who I am anymore
And all of this beauty is slipping away and I am caught
In some kind of machine
Let's just go - let's just get out while we're still young
Let's live for love and a dream.
CHORUS
Bridge:
We could live in a little black box
With a lightbulb hangin' above
All I need is you, all I need is you,
All I need is a dream, and love. . .
CHORUS
