Malin Pettersen - Queen of the Meadow Lyrics

I want Queen of the Meadow on my grave
And if I've owned anything you like then that's what you save

Do some tiding today
Clear the room
But do the dishes in the morning

I hope somebody laughs at the wrong place
I hope somebody smiles through tears covering their face

And all their voices humming low
A Swedish song I used to know
Through the smell of Queen of the Meadow

Because the good times were plenty
And the bad ones won't bother me now
I've learned more that I knew my mind could, somehow
And as a memory of all the good life gave
I want Queen of the Meadow on my grave

Share some drinks on the porch and stay up all night
Talk about the good, talk about the bad, talk about the life

Go to bed when silence is
The only thing that's left to say
And go to sleep with the smile I love

Because the good times were plenty
And the bad ones won't bother me now
I've learned more that I knew my mind could, somehow
And as a memory of all the good life gave
I want Queen of the Meadow on my grave

Some day in a thousand years when it's all gone
Ain't nobody's gonna know it's my grave

I hope somebody will pass this place
As the summer sun hits low
And smell a wild bush of Queen Of the Meadow

Because the good times were plenty
And the bad ones won't bother me now
I've learned more that I knew my mind could, somehow
And as a memory of all the good life gave
I want Queen of the Meadow on my grave
