[00:00.00]The Palace of Versailles - Al Stewart
[00:26.87]The wands of smoke are rising
[00:29.86]From the walls of the bastille
[00:33.13]And through the streets of paris
[00:36.17]Runs a sense of the unreal
[00:39.94]The kings have all departed
[00:42.96]There servants are nowhere
[00:46.38]We burned out their mansions
[00:49.22]In the name of robespierre
[00:52.34]And still we wait
[00:55.62]To see the day begin
[00:58.99]Our time is wasting in the wind
[01:05.50]Wondering why
[01:08.72]Wondering why it echoes
[01:12.48]Through the lonely palace of versailles
[01:28.96]Inside the midnight councils
[01:32.32]The lamps are burning low
[01:35.41]On you sit and talk all through the night
[01:38.47]But there's just no place to go
[01:42.17]And bonaparte is coming
[01:45.16]With his army from the south
[01:48.59]Marat your days are numbered
[01:51.68]And we live hand to mouth
[01:54.56]While we wait
[01:57.73]To see the day begin
[02:01.19]Our time is wasting in the wind
[02:07.77]Wondering why
[02:11.00]Wondering why it echoes
[02:14.77]Through the lonely palace of versailles
[02:44.58]The ghost of revolution
[02:47.27]Still prowls the paris streets
[02:50.65]Down all the restless centuries
[02:54.12]It wonders incomplete
[02:57.35]It speaks inside the cheap red wine
[03:00.35]Of cafe summer nights
[03:03.91]It's red and amber voices
[03:06.79]Call the cars at traffic lights
[03:09.67]Why do you wait
[03:12.94]To see the day begin
[03:16.43]Your time is wasting in the wind
[03:22.96]Wondering why
[03:26.21]Wondering why it echoes
[03:29.91]Through the lonely palace of versailles
[03:37.68]Wondering why it echoes
[03:43.29]Through the lonely palace of versailles
