OPHELIA - © 2009

Ophelia, crossing under
Fearing silence nor death do us part
My Ophelia, clutching chances of forgotten desire
Only the prince at the end rules my heart
Hurry, please hurry...the sky grows wet

Listen - listen to my eyes, help me realize
Kiss me - kiss my body dry, swear on you & I
Or my name is not Ophelia

Ophelia, torn asunder
Smothered heartbeats and battered cliches
My Ophelia, how she blanches...like a child she waits

True love is not for the faint of heart
Don't worry, no, don't worry...the sun still sets
Listen - listen to my eyes, help me realize
Kiss me - kiss my body dry, swear on you & I

You know that my love won't run dry
I don't want to say goodbye

Hold me - say you love me so, never let me go
Love me - say you love me so, never let me go
