Queen Of Darkness by Tom Evans

QUEEN OF DARKNESS (Tom Evans)
[Outtake from Wish You Were Here sessions - recorded 1974 - released U.S. 2018]

Queen of darkness
Color your hair
Let it shine bright
And you'll be there

Queen of sorrow
Your head in your hands
Think of tomorrow
Maybe, you'll understand
Maybe, you'll understand

But when the sun shines
Through the sadness in your eyes
You'll cast a shadow
To look at yourself
In your disguise

Queen of sadness
Your hair hanging low
Let it shine on
Something to show

Queen of lies
Casting your spell
Playing a role
And you're doing it well
You're doing it well

Queen of lies
Cast your spell
Play your role
Do it, do it, do well
Doing it well

Lo lo dee die dum

Don't think, don't think, don't think, don't think, don't think, don't think, don't think
Don't think!

QUEEN OF DARKNESS (Tom Evans)
[Acoustic guitar demo from Head First CD, disc 2 (demos & bonus tracks) - recorded 1974 - released U.S. 2000]

Queen of darkness
Color your hair
Let it shine bright
He'll be there

Queen of lies
Magic smile
Spin your web
Watch him die

Queen of sorrow
Is what you are
Sad and lonely
With no truthful friends
No truthful friends

Queen of darkness
With your head in your hands
So full of sorrow
Just won't understand
No, you won't understand
