Queen - Lily Of The Valley

Written by Freddie, released on the album ''Sheer Heart Attack'' in 1974. The song it's one of the few Queen's slow ballads, and has a reference to "Seven Seas of Rhye" in the line "messenger from Seven Seas has flown to tell the King of Rhye he's lost his throne". Very underrated beautiful song if u ask me, his only flaw is that it is too short.

Lyrics:
I am forever searching high and low
But why does everyone tell me 'no'?
Neptune of the seas, an answer for me please
The lily of the valley doesn't know

I lie in wait with open eyes
I carry on through stormy skies
I follow every course; my kingdom for a horse
But each time I grow old
Serpent of the Nile, relieve me for a while
And cast me from your spell, and let me go

Messenger from Seven Seas has flown
To tell the king of Rhye he's lost his throne
Wars will never cease
Is there time enough for peace?
The lily of the valley doesn't know ...
