There's no living in my life anymore
The seas have gone dry
And the rain's stopped falling
Please don't you cry any more
Can't you see
Listen to the breeze
Whisper to me please
Don't send me to the path of nevermore

Even the valley's below
Where the rays of the sun
Were so warm and tender
Now haven't anything to grow
Can't you see?
Why did you have to leave me? (nevermore)
Why did you deceive me? (nevermore)
You sent me to the path of nevermore
When you say you didn't love me anymore
Ah ah nevermore nevermore

    General Comment:This is such a brilliant song. I can play it on piano, not meaning to brag, just thought I'd share that because it's such a beautiful song to listen to and to play. Queen are so brilliant, I agree with Pulp FIction, 39 is also great. And yes, it is a shame that Queen's early songs weren't as well known, because their earlier ones are the ones I've found to be better (The Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke, Flick of The Wrist, Seven Seas of Rhye, My Fairy King etc.). I love this song, everyone should listen to it.

    General Comment:This is one of the best by Mr. Freddie. It sucks that it didn't get too famous. I also love '39 and love of my life.

    General Comment:Though it's a very short song it's one of the greatest, at least I think so. It's truly magical! I listen to it again and again but I never get tired of it! Freddie is such a great songwriter, even in the earlier times, and sings them with such passion. He has the most beautiful voice! And this song is special.

    General Comment:Great ballad. Freddie never ceased to amaze. You hear one of his songs and you feel it will never be surpassed but he always finds a way. Good stuff.
