Behold this night, still and clear

You look here just like an angel sleeping

I wish I could ease your fears

I would catch the diamond tears you're weeping

In your eyes I would hide

By your side I could defy

The forces tearing us apart

But reality, as it seems

Looking back, is that our dream

Was fated from the start



Girl we're star-crossed and can't escape

We're condemned and can only wait

At this time now it's far too late

To save us from our fate



I'll remain in your hold

Body, mind, heart and soul

As long as I breathe

Though consequence takes its toll

All is out of our control

That's how it will be

So close your eyes my young bride

Listen to me one last time

There's something I have to say

When your faith turns to despair

Always will my love be there

And never fade away



Girl we're star-crossed and can't escape

We're condemned and can only wait

At this time now it's far too late

To save us from our fate

You can't save us

You can't save us



Girl we're star-crossed and can't escape

We're condemned and can only wait

At this time now it's far too late

The poison's in our veins

It's true

You know that I'd die for you

You know that I'd die for you

You know that I'd die for you



Forever true

I'll see you through
