ever yours (semper fidelis)

i throw myself at your feet and then

hoping forgiveness will be mine

i wait for the sun to rise again

over the river

one more time

what are the chances we would ever meet

if i were vagabond and you were royal?

ever yours

now

silent

brave and understood

all that you mean to me

just because

this vow

timeless and unbound

without a sound

will be forever yours

i am alone as the cold night falls

a power brings me to my knees

dark shadows on the wall

i hear a whisper

in the leaves

semper fidelis are words i hear

and they will stay with me

now and ever
