Mama plays a queen on the hill built on a dream<br /> While the children play in the field<br /> Papa smokes the pipe of a sweet and better life<br /> But how strong is the shield?<br /> Can peace be found on the carpet above ground<br /> Where sky is forever blue<br /> <br /> So let it pass baby now, the slow and riding cloud<br /> Which may take me from you<br /> <br /> Many things a man can lose<br /> His self, his rights, his views<br /> But never his heart or his love<br /> So take this hand of mine and climb baby, climb<br /> To the hill up above<br /> <br /> Now you can play a queen on the hill built on a dream<br /> While our children play in the field<br /> I can smoke the pipe of a sweet and better life<br /> And trust in the strength of the shield<br /> <br /> So trust in you love, and Lucy of above<br /> And let light pass like a wheel<br /> Don't take the chance of life's hectic dance<br /> Kiss the strength of the shield<br /> <br /> The seeker will be found by the looker on the ground<br /> And to his wish he will yield<br /> <br /> Fate will have it's word, of course (?)<br /> And time will change its course<br /> And hold the strength of the shield
