Tailor-Made Queen

 

Well I've loved your first daughter, 
But now she’s coming home to you, 
If I wrote an album she’d be on the cover,

Well I've loved your first daughter, 
Not out of choice but if I could choose, 
I’d have her over any other, 
In her orange, lilac, green and blue.

She doesn't need poker to feel in tune.
