Oh the center of a star
Oh you know who you are
I'm seeing the other world
Seems so strange
They can't wait to get close to you
'Cause through your mind they can see
They all know that you're angry
Yet in their hearts they know you're the queen
The center of a star
You know who
You know who you are
Oh yes I've seen the other world
And yes it is so strange
You put me in the right direction, Nina
And the time has come to carry on, Nina
And I know I can say in my heart
For the queen who never left me to roam
And knowing she gave me home
Nina Simone
Simone
Look at them now
They think they know you
They know what you're saying, Nina
But they don't know what you mean
Your spirits rise
Your spirits rise
Now they don't know you
But what they're lacking now, Nina
Is the eyes to see
The center of a star
You know who
You know who you are
Yes now I'm seeing the other world
Yes yes and it seems too strange
It seems so strange
Yes it is
It seems so strange
Yes it is
Oh the center of a star
You know who you are
You were right
You were right Nina
I'm seeing the other world
It seems so strange
