Blues Traveler - The Queen of Sarajevo lyrics

In the international rumble She takes a chance and comes to me And falling through the cracks we tumble Not far at all but enough to see We've come to rest our backs against the rubble Of a future in uncertainty "And I'm so glad you're here" she said "And I hate that you're here" she said "I wish I didn't need you so much To be here" It's funny meeting anyone this way But there she goes Walking her last runway The queen of Sarajevo We communicate in broken English And nervous sighs and apprehension As fascinated we are standing witness No alcohol could quell the tension No kind of clever joke or small talk in this No fate denies our soul connection "And I'm so glad you're here" she said "And I hate that you're here" she said "I wish I didn't need you so much To be here" It's funny meeting anyone this way But there she goes Walking her last runway The queen of Sarajevo They say that in the west the blues comes easy And the night belongs to the one who plays But it's the ancient souls that breathe them deeply For the bluest heart is the one who stays It's funny meeting anyone this way But there she goes Watch her walk her last runway The queen of Sarajevo And it's so funny to be living this way But it's time to go Leave you standing on the runway The queen of Sarajevo The queen of Sarajevo
