Rowena's Song

Will I die by the sun

and for ever lose my one

in this dark

all hope has gone

will you fly here by night

and set me alight

in this dark

where all hope has gone

In oldest of old

spire of stone

in aeons unknown

away from her home

highest of high

was price for the life

in endless imprisonment

forlorn and alive

A beam of daylight

once brought scent of leaves

a song from beloved

to a middle of the night

now ended are lies

her guardian has died

she found a second wind

in a blessing disguised

A wish for salvation

now all that remains

but walls of her chamber

still echo the dreams

Tonight she leaves

this bleak world behind

tonight all her fears

wither out of sight

Will I die by the sun

and for ever lose my one

in this dark

all hope has gone

will you fly here by night

and set me alight

in this dark

where all hope has gone
