The raven flew above my head

She was sweet

Like a black rose

Whose raven she was

Nobody knows.

Thud, thud,

Came from behind

"Why, hello!"

Who this man was

Nobody knows.

He held out a hand

And gave a big smile

It looked like stone

What this man was

Nobody knows.

The raven flew to his hand

And changed into a blade

Oh, no!

What he was going to do

Nobody knows.

He came up to me

Is this the end?

But then he slowed

Why he hadn't killed

Nobody knows.

He took my hand

And led me around

Change he had chosen

Why he was so kind

Nobody knows.

His friend came along

And tried to protect me from him

Struck a defensive pose

Why I was supposed to stay away

Nobody knows.

But the man took me along

And we fell in love

Said I was his rose

Why he had chosen me

Nobody knows.

So we tried to stay together

Forever and forever

No matter what difficulties arose

Why I stayed

Nobody knows.

But I know

That is man is all

I ever need to be complete

Though his body is made of stone

His heart lives and beats

It all happened by chance.

Why the stars aligned on me

Nobody knows.
