With a quivering voice, you spoke the word
Shadow came between us, sharp as a sword
Gone is my gladness and vanished my pride
'Cause luck didn't stay on our side.

Lapped in luxury, I cried for the moon
But the game is out, it all ended too soon
Awakening came as a belt from the blue
At last rumours seemed to be true.

Refrein:
Oh my ruthless queen
You would steal the treasure of my dream
It's the twinkle in your eyes
That took me by surprise
Oh my ruthless queen
I just can't accept our love has been.

I bear you no malice, you show no remorse
Love is dead and gone, it was no endless source
Your sudden leave was the finishing stroke
Considering everything broke.

Refrein.

Refrein 2:
Please don't tell me you couldn't care less
While I feel like a ship in distress
Oh my ruthless queen
I just can't accept our love has been.

I can't bear to see you go
But it's all part of the show you perform
Letting romance fade little by little
Our love was precious, but too brittle.

Refrein.

Refrein 2.
