Tina Turner - I Might Have Been Queen

i'm a new pair of eyes
everytime i am born
an original mind
because i just died
i'm scanning the horizon
for someone recognizing
that i might of been queen
for every sun that sets
there is a new one dawning
for every empire crushed
there is a brand new nation
let the waters rise
i have ridden each tide
from the gates of the city
where the first born died

chorus
and i might have been queen
i remember the girl in the fields with no name
she had a love
oh but the rivers won't stop for me
no the rivers won't stop for me

i'm a new pair of eyes
an original mind
with my senses of old
and the heart of a giant
and i'm searching through the wreakage
for some great recolletion
that i might have been queen
for every sage that falls
there is an ancient child

chorus
and i might have been queen
i remember the girl in the fields with no name
she had a love
oh but the rivers won't stop for me
no the rivers won't stop for me

i look up to the stars
with my perfect memory
i look through it all
and my future's no shock to me
i look down but i see no tragedy
i look up to my past
a spirit running free
i look down i look down and i'm there in history
oh i'm a soul survivor
