Her majesty strolls through the garden Catching her robe on the thorns Spring having long since departed Alone wirh herself and her thoughts She thought it would last forever The splendour of days gone by Now she can't seem to remember No matter how hard she tries Past the wrought iron gates Into the overgrown maze Through a crack in the wall Down in the crypt she waits She's the queen of yesterday A traveller losing her way In yesterday's glory she basks Alone and cast away She's the queen of yesterday A wanderer who's going astray Her realm disappearing in smoke Her majesty's fading away His majesty's holding a banquet A feast for a moment long gone The revelers have long since departed Alone with himself and his thoughts He asks himself how did this happen For the one millionth time How did I end up a dotard From a splendid man in his prime? Past the wrought iron gates Into the overgrown maze Through a crack in the wall Down in the crypt he waits He's the king of yesterday A traveller losing his way The fool has grabbed hold of the throne The palace in disaray He's the king of nothing at all As the regency takes its toll His realm disappearing in smoke His majesty's fading away Past the wrought iron gates Into the overgrown maze Through a crack in the wall Down in the crypt we wait In the kingdom of yesterday We struggle to find our own way Roaming the halls of the keep Just whiling the day away In the kingdom of yesterday We drape all the hallways in gray See how the battlements crumble Our majesty's fading away
