I want to tell you a story
A tragedy that is
‘Bout two amazing people
No greater love than this

Time may have changed some details
But I don’t care ‘bout that
So please sit down and listen to
Love without regret

Four years they fought together
Facing battles hand in hand
I will take you through their history
From start till final stand

Our story started a while ago
With a troubadour
Who met our lady on a day
While playing near the shore

She caught his eye, he forgot her name
And everything seemed lost
He searched and searched but couldn’t find
But kept his fingers crossed

Faith intervened, they met again
Again things went awry
This time however her name stuck
He got another try

Our troubadour, now fully schooled
Was impressed with our ladies mind
For she wasn’t only beautiful
But also smart and kind

Our troubadour made up his mind
Wanted her by his side
Gave her a rose, one of a kind
Down by the roadside

Went to the tree where love was forged
And asked her there and then
Will you be mine and she replied
Was already wondering when

They gave a kiss to seal the deal
That’s how it all began
Or so I’ve heard down on the streets
Overhearing two craftsmen

Now we arrive at the next phase
When love would conquer all
No challenge you could throw at them
Could get them down and crawl

There were some times that there were cracks
But nothing that couldn’t be solved
With love and words of affirmation
Their love slowly evolved

Our troubadour had found a place
That would pay for meat and bread
Our lady on the other hand
Went to study law, I read

They shared a passion, the written word
And build a library vast
It would be hard to find a book
That they hadn’t amassed

Maybe you know of Romeo
And his love Juliet
They came from different families
And both ended up dead

Our troubadour and his great love
Had an issue of that kind
But they found ways to make it work
And get some peace of mind

The years went by, details were lost
Some stories you still hear
I can tell you some of them
But some things are not clear

Our troubadour once had to go
To a meeting of some kind
And he still would’ve been a sleep
If not for his ladies mind

For she still knew at morning dew
He needed to awake
She woke him up with the kindest words
For a lot was then at stake

Another time the world found out
What an artist she could be
For she could write a certain way
An art for all to see

Our troubadour sometimes got hurt
And always she was there
Or came to visit from afar
To brighten up the air

One time he had to rest a week
Without a spot of light
She came and helped him through it all
Stayed in darkness day and night

But our troubadour was troubled
Sometimes couldn’t find his smile
And even when he was flooded with love
It sometimes took a while

The grass would wither, turn brown from green
Flooded with water from tears
Feeling alone in a crowded room
His heart burdened down with fears

But always in the darkest of nights
Her light would pierce the veil
Of sorrow and pain and feeling not sane
Breaking him free from jail

But after a while her light was stained
It shone slightly more dim
Hardly noticeable, at least at first
But here entered the grim

But still, they shared their love and joy
Preparing for a feast
The greatest in recent history
At, the very least

Cause our troubadour, he had gone down
Asked the question of his life
Will you be forever mine
Will you be my wife

But while they were preparing the feast
A war suddenly broke out
They tried not to let it intervene
In the end, they got knocked out

This final battle scorched the world
For over half a year
Leaving nothing in its tracks
But desperation and fear

It took a while for the world to heal
The exact time is unknown
But light was victorious in the end
Darkness overthrown

It's hard to say what happend to them
For history doesn’t tell
But for their lives together I say
I know they lived it well
