The princess of my heart, she is someone I know
She doesn’t appear in the headlines wherever I go
The princess of my heart won’t take good fortune to see
Oh but it is my good fortune that she is with me
I hope she knows, yes she knows, then that’s alright

How dark would be my heart if she were taken away?
The death of a famous name would mean little that day
I hope she knows, yes she knows, then that’s alright

I hear the lynch mob baying
I’d better guard what I am saying
They’ve come to tear apart the few
Heartless ones of a different view
And I’m sitting here not much to show
Just a few lines to let her know, maybe she knows,
Yes she knows, then that’s alright

The princess of my heart, she is someone I know
