Tekst piosenki

She was the lady of my thoughts

My eager love with grace she bought

At night in secret we did meet

And soon our souls were knit eternally


Now here she lies before me

Pale death is all I see

Her spirit has left this world

Why would she do this thing to me?


So there I was found weeping in the streets

By one who cared for me

He sought to lift me from my grief

He brought misery, no relief


On to the feast

Of my great enemy

Taken by surprise

One there wounded me


Perfection in her form

A sight to see

I had scarce dreamt

Of such beauty

Our eyes locked

Our hearts intertwined

I felt a rush

As her lips pressed to mine


What have I done?

I’ve fallen in love

With one I was meant to hate

What a fool I have been

To do such a thing

It fits that I choose such a fate


What shall I do?

My love knows no bounds

When she speaks

My heart aches at the sound


We must meet

The secret must be kept

If we are found

In vain I have wept


From the balcony

I hear her sighs

The stars of the night

Have joined with her eyes


She sees me and speaks

The whole world shakes

I must have her

Whatever it takes

She says she agrees

And that she will send

Together we vow

Never to end


Gone to the church

Exchanging promises

We must be together

No matter the consequence

I am hers

And she is mine

Together we gaze forward

Into endless time


Ah, my Juliet


See how they dance together

My friends and my foes

Enforcing the ancient quarrel

Nobody knows

Their swords are out and drawn

Together they taunt

The friends with the enemy

Who so often fought


They must be contained

We must have peace

The enemy’s cousin

Was my lady at the feast

But here yet he stands

A furious beast

A wretched villain

Drawn and glaring at me


I try to interfere

I jump in between

My dear friend’s life bears

The brunt of my deed

And with a loud cry

Mortality snuffed

Laid to rest

Turned to dust


Here comes the murderer

Back at it again

The wretched monster

That slew my friend

In anger I draw

His lifeblood is shed

I flee from the scene

Abandon him, dead


I’ll go to the priest

And hide in his cell

And hope to God

He can save me from hell

What have I done?

I’ve now spilled the blood

Of the dear kinsman

Of my true love


There I learn

Of my pathetic fate

A royal punishment

To pay for my hate


My body is banished

Yet my soul is dead

For ending the line

Of my newly-wed


I go to her chamber

To bid her goodbye

And as I leave

I can hear her distant cries

Will we meet again?

Only time will tell

I’d rather be dead

Than live through this hell


Here comes a friend

A servant of my father

To tell of the death

Of my enemy’s daughter


How can this be true?

No one hears my cries

My dearly-kept secret

Has fled to the sky

I must go to join her

No matter the cost

To honor her passing

My life must be lost


I have the stars to guide me

Their light will lead my way

I wish that I could disappear

Into the dying day

I’ve come to see my lady

She’ll be my final sight

My soul is sad and helpless

On this, so bleak a night


I have no life without her

No reason to go on

My spirit will go to join her

Upon the break of dawn

I’ve come to see my lady

She’ll be my final sight

My soul is sad and desperate

On this, so grim a night


If I could turn the tables back

I would have bade her go

Perhaps she would now be with me

If so, I’ll never know


The cemetery is empty

I can feel I’m drawing near

The tomb of her ancestors

Her resting place is here

I’ve come to see my lady

To bid the world goodbye

To slip into the emptiness

To ease the pain

To die


Confronted at the tomb

My heart is filled with sorrow

Why should he interfere?

He will never see tomorrow

My knife twists in his gut

As he gasps his final breath

Another life is done

I must cause just one more death


Here she lies in beauty

A view to behold

That without seeing

It cannot be told

Her blood has gone still

Her hands cannot feel

As I hold them to my face

And soak them with tears


Why should I go on?

Here lies my wife

And in her passing

So concludes my life

I lift the bottle

To my parched lips

The venom fills me

Through my body it rips


With but one last kiss

The doors are locked

Forever

My life is done


I gaze in horror

As my soul watches from above

The events that unfold

Upon the waking of my love

She sees my body

Pulls my dagger from its sheath

Holds it to her chest

And pushes it beneath


My soul is done searching

No longer I cry

My lady and I have met

Finally

In the sky
