Arthur Brown - Child of My Kingdom lyrics

People watching from high places Print their minds on others faces See the world that turns upon them So many thoughts lying far beyond them Child of my kingdom See the hand that wipes tears from my brain Tears of a lifetime So many hours days upon hours, nights upon time Nights without time You know for once in your life You just don't want to be free Because I'm leading you on to just where you're leaving me And you can follow the path though there's no footsteps to see I won't be leading you, leaving you child I just keep driving you, driving you wild You know for once in your life You just don't want to be free Because I'm leading you on to just where you're leaving me And you can follow the path though there's no footsteps to see I won't be leading you, leaving you child I just keep driving you, driving you wild Child of my kingdom See the hand wiping tears from my brain Catch the drops where minds plead within you See the teeth that withdraw their sting from your eyes, your eyes You know for once in your life You just don't want to be free Because I'm leading you on to just where you're leaving me And you can follow the path though there's no footsteps to see I won't be leading you, leaving you child I just keep driving you, driving you wild Child, child of my kingdom You catch the tears where warmth lies bleeding from a child of fire swords are flashing in a light and a tree full of dew drips where you mind seeps to mine and we cling to our fine religion to our fine religion in your dew, thoughts for all mind upon mine giving thoughts in thoughts patterns put on your brain as they stand at hand in my garden with the key to my kingdom
