Pearly Queen Songtext
von Eric Clapton & Steve Winwood

I had a strange dream from a pearly queen
And she could drink more wine than I′ve ever seen
She had some gypsy's blood flowin′ through her feet
And when the time was right she said that I would meet my destiny


I traveled around the world to find the sun
I couldn't stop myself from havin' fun
And then one day I met an Indian girl
And she made me forget this troubled world we′re living in

I had a strange dream, in my head
I saw a pearly queen lying there
And all around her feet, flowers bloomed
But they were made of silk and sequins, two by two

I bought a sequined suit from a pearly queen
She could drink more wine than I′d ever seen
She had some gypsy's blood flowing through her feet
And when the time was right she said that I would meet my destiny
