My love for her runs so deep
As minutes go by, I cannot sleep
I know now she is my keep
For I look in her dark blue eyes, she will not weep
A new day arises, the sun so bright
The two of us will escape our plight
We know our decision is right
We will rest here until next light
The gardens we walked were filled with pink, yellow and red
I cannot wait for the day we wed
If we go apart, I rather be dead
The love poems we have written cannot be misread
The village we seek is just a few miles away
There are those nearby who want nothing but to betray
I will speak of our love, they will obey
I will tell them her name, my sweet Maley
Our journey ends over the next hill
I feel in the air, a disturbing chill
I must protect her with all my skills
She asks me if we will make it, I tell her we will
Danger is near, we can't ignore
Should we fail, our spirits will soar
For our love will never leave us, this we swore
Our enemies are upon us, I will fight as I would in war
I fought with all my strength and skills
But Manley and I lay next to each other, very still
For the two of us, there will be no more thrills
