Lyrics
[Instrumental interlude]
Ooohh hhhhoo
[Verse 1]
High above the misty Highlands, where the heather grows,
A ghostly figure wanders, lost in ancient woes.
Once a queen with a kingdom, now just a whisper in the breeze,
Mary's spirit roams the hills, searching through the trees.
Ooohhh hooo hohoo
[Chorus]
Where is my head, my crown, my reign?
Why was I bound in chains, left to suffer pain?
O'er the Highlands, I watch and yearn,
For the day when I return.
Once more I'll be the Queen of Scots, (Queen of Scots)
Once more Scotland will be free.
[Verse 2]
Oh, why did fate betray me, after years of lonely wait?
In the halls of foreign castles, I met my cruel fate.
A life of royal splendor, ended by the axe's fall,
Now my restless spirit calls, through Scotland's ancient walls.
Ooohhh hooo hohoo
[Chorus]
Where is my head, my crown, my reign?
Why was I bound in chains, left to suffer pain?
O'er the Highlands, I watch and yearn,
For the day when I return.
Once more I'll be the Queen of Scots, (Queen of Scots)
Once more Scotland will be free.
[Instrumental interlude]
[Bridge]
Hear the echoes of my sorrow, carried by the northern wind,
A kingdom lost in shadows, but a dream that won't rescind.
Through the lochs and glens I'll wander, with a heart that will not cease,
Till the day that Scotland rises, and my soul can find its peace.
[Verse 3]
On the banks of ancient rivers, beneath the cloudy skies,
My spirit seeks the answer, where my destiny lies.
In the eyes of Highland warriors, I see the fires burn bright,
The hope of a nation, waiting for the coming light.
Ooohhh hooo hohoo
[Chorus]
Where is my head, my crown, my reign?
Why was I bound in chains, left to suffer pain?
O'er the Highlands, I watch and yearn,
For the day when I return.
Once more I'll be the Queen of Scots, (Queen of Scots)
Once more Scotland will be free.
[Outro]
So remember me in legends, let my story never fade,
For the spirit of a queen, is a vow that can't be swayed.
When the Highlands sing of freedom, when the banners fly unfurled,
I'll return, whole and sovereign, to a free and joyous world.
Once more I'll be the Queen of Scots
(Queen of Scots)
Ooohhh hooo hohoo
[Chorus]
Where is my head, my crown, my reign?
Why was I bound in chains, left to suffer pain?
O'er the Highlands, I watch and yearn,
For the day when I return.
Once more I'll be the Queen of Scots, (Queen of Scots)
Once more Scotland will be free.
[Outro]
So remember me in legends, let my story never fade,
For the spirit of a queen, is a vow that can't be swayed.
When the Highlands sing of freedom, when the banners fly unfurled,
I'll return, whole and sovereign, to a free and joyous world.
Oooohhh hoooo
Oooohhh hoooo
Once more I'll be the Queen of Scots
(Queen of Scots)
