mulholland queen

Singer:wilson, jonathan

you are perched up on the ridge of town

mmm

you are my lookout

will you sing the secrets in all twelve keys?

ah dreamer

have you dreamed to leave?

i've been looking for a maker to take me in

so pretty lady

where do i begin?

up mulholland

travel by machine

carve the canyons

my mulholland queen

show me all the world behind those eyes

oh baby

you're so blue and wise

oh

test me baby

make me wait

teach me what to appreciate

a thousand glances

a thousand days

sweetheart

let me count the ways

arrest me honey

make me smile

let me make this worth your while

up mulholland

travel by machine

carve the canyons

my mulholland queen

a miracle those two souls would meet

on some angel's point where the hearts they speak

with the babies breath in a crown-like shape

just framing your features; your neck's very nape

i'm lost as we drive down the canyon road

you lean over

you tell me that you're in love

so i toss and i turn and i smile in my dream

where i've been there before

where i've felt like a king

through your laugh

i can breathe in a childlike air

with you dear

i'm in awe of a creature rare

with your tender smile and your pretty little dress

with your jazz in your heart

you don't need all the rest

as the days pass

the nights are our silver screens

from the curves of bel air to topanga creek

as we hear what the masters have sang us before

all the billie and the chet and the pharaoh of yore

through your touch

i can feel where your heart has been

through the flashes and fog

i can see where and when

under those big eucalyptus'

where your grasses are green

where you sway under the heavens

and your dominion is every. star
