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, 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 clever kind of 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
