Edwin Coutts

Lyrics

Nothing much occurs
In our cold coastal town.
Even so our name
is known for miles around.
All because a girl,
A girl that fate betrayed,
Claimed a worthy man
A safe bet. Who ran a risky trade…

There she is
The Queen of Taylor's Bay
Majestic on her lonely rock
The Queen of Taylor's Bay
She watches every wave
She sighs at every sail
And If today cannot pay
She knows tomorrow will

Nothing much is known
Of the man who caused her fame
We all know his fate
We don't recall his name
Seasons tiptoe by
She feels the wind no more.
When we tried to talk her down.
She cried: "Have you never loved before?"

There she is
The Queen of Taylor's Bay
Majestic on her lonely rock
The Queen of Taylor's Bay
She watches every wave
She sighs at every sail
And If today cannot pay
She knows tomorrow will

She watches every wave
She watches every wave

We tried to talk her down.
She cried: "Have you never loved before?"
