Intro

Verse 1

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

Chorus

 Girl we're starcrossed 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

Verse ii

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

2nd CHORUS

 Girl we're starcrossed 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

Middle

FINAL CHORUS

 Girl we're starcrossed 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.......
