Kev Gray and The Gravy Train - The Arrival of The Prince

The Arrival of the Prince
Took your love from me
Nine months we had waited for you to set him free
From the womb his first cry was my death knell
In the tomb of our love
A new woman was born that day
One I did not recognize
A mother not a lover
Some stranger in disguise
Her love
She transferred to another man
She'd never known before
Just one look in his eyes
What has he done for you?
What will do he do for you?
Make your life complete?
How can you say love someone that cannot yet even speak
An unformed mass of tissue born before its time
It's head as soft as plasticine
More monkey than superman
Yet the Prince who in one smile took me from my throne
The Prince who by law
Now owns my house, my home
Vehicles for DNA is the side I'll have to take
To keep my sanity from jumping from the bridge, the cliff, the lake
To leave Nature in its time of triumph would deprive it of its fun
Even though it no longer needs me
The battle already won
And so I laugh at the way it's all panned out
How my lost love came to be
For a little man who just cries then smiles
And yet more and more
You see more and more each day
He's just like me
