'When you became a reality to me
Not the falling petals of a dying rose tree.
The enchanted meltings of recent snow.
Not a tale of long ago!
'When you became a reality to me.
A prince, a prince, but oh, oh,
Not so long ago!
My shimmering beauty
That kept me awake
And held me to sleep
My prince you!
Had the power to make me weak?
To tremble night jitters inside
Till no longer I could be denied
Or pretend to be chic.
There are times, timeless
You put the night to music
A linguistic beat
I feel in my heart's beat
Like Lady Guinevere, my Lancelot
Your chivalry is my defeat
When times, timeless
Become the falling petals of a dying rose
I'll endlessly love you.
Not like the enchanted
Melting's of recent snow
Not like a tale of long ago
But a moment of love so heavenly,
Not so long ago.
