Some things are just worth giving up for the one you love.

 

 

From the cinders and ashes of exhausted flame

Came a wonderful truth that is not one to blame

For this feeling of love that brings forth its weight

Which we gladly present in the form of debate

 

On the darkest of night not a star above shone

We hear of the plight his decision alone

For the heart of this woman true love would reclaim

From the cinders and ashes of exhausted flame

 

And this knight you will see just a few steps away

Had decided to take with the band on this day

Whilst knowing full well that his Lady would fear

The thought that her armor clad knight was not near

 

He played till the hours, well into the morn

His heart between song and his lady were torn

But still he continued till the sun called the day

And this knight you will see just a few steps away

 

As he knocked on the door, crooked smile on his face

He called out her name as he stood at her place

Ignore him she did for twas easy to know

Where he had been, what place he did go

 

He hadn’t a clue that she waited her chore

And watched from above on the very next floor

His attempts to gain entry to this her own place

As he knocked on the door, crooked smile on his face

 

As she moved on the balcony, eyes gazing down

Watching his antics without making a sound

And thought to herself this was really a shame

It is his love of music that is surely to blame

 

Then her mind turned to songs he had written for her

As the love that she felt for him began to stir

Wonderful feelings inside her spun round

As she moved on the balcony, eyes gazing down

 

She decided to forgive and forget would be best

For his feelings and love he soon would profess

Through the entry she walked, quiet feet on the floor

To the base of the stairway that leads to the door

 

A moment to breathe, a glance at the clock

No longer she hears the sound of his knock

She would let him in, allow him some rest

She decided to forgive and forget would be best

 

Dejected, no answer, he turns now to leave
