"Ophelia"

She was my true love; taken from me
Barely but half my years
Still, each day that passes, let no one see,
My grieving and fallen tears
An ocean of crying, a mountain of pain
Ophelia, I will not know love again

Almost a woman, when I got my first glance
A vision there in the rain
Quickly our life filled with love and romance
A love that would always remain
My raven-haired beauty; my soul and my heart
Nothing could drift us apart

Until that dreadful day; in a most woeful way
My true love was taken from me
Fire swept through her bedroom,
As she slept through her doom
Killing and stealing, my lovely bride to be
Ophelia! Ophelia! Angels take you this night!
Away and forever! Far frometh my sight!

Numbed by the anger; sullen from my sadness
Her ghost still lingers so strong
Time does not heal, but builds up this madness
Knowing here, is not where I belong
For I plead to the angels to heareth my cry
Lift me to a kinder place
Never hear but an answer; they fail to comply
This spirit has fallen from grace

For I know but the answer; Ophelia, my dear
It lies here deep in this heart
I'm coming, my love; time is drawing us near
Time for this healing to start
So I drink from my cup; laced with poison so pure
For there are no regrets; I know this be my cure
I will meet you in Heaven; and this I know why
My Hell was of earth; lifeless years that crawled by

Ophelia! Ophelia! The music will play
Heaven will open its gates
Ophelia! Ophelia! Alas be this day,
The Angels embrace us,
And take us away
