Lyrics The Levellers

The Levellers

Elation

Oh there once was a man who had lost his own smile

And he wandered the country mile after mile

Never quite knowing what he wanted to find

For his heart laid heavy with the weight of his mind

So he looked at the land through the tears in his eyes

For he knew that there were those who would will her to die

And he wept for his mother as he lay at her feet

He hears a voice singing him softly to sleep

I'll be your queen, I'll be your mother, be your mystical child

Be your best friend, your lover, your wife for all time

Will there ever be another in this life of mine

Will there ever be another like my mystical child

So he climbed a high hill and looked out to sea

And he heard a voice calling softly to him

Open your heart boy for it needs to be free

And the next time your crying come running to me

I'll be your queen, I'll be your mother, be your mystical child

Be your best friend, your lover, your wife for all time

Will there ever be another in this life of mine

Will there ever be another like my mystical child

So he walked through the valley the trees and the fields

And he came to a river where she waited for him

And they looked at the water of life flowing by

And he heard a voice saying: "You're not alone in the fight"

I'll be your queen, I'll be your mother, be your mystical child

Be your best friend, your lover, your wife for all time

Will there ever be another in this life of mine

Will there ever be another like my mystical child

Will there ever be another like my mystical child
