Author's Note: This is my first song parody, originally a song from The Secret Garden it's very basis fits Harry Potter. I changed the line and speaker splits more than I originally wanted to, but I believe it proved worth it. I hope you enjoy.
Lily's Eyes (Secret Garden parodied to Harry Potter)
Setting
SIRIUS- in front of Lily and James' destroyed home, holding lightening-scarred baby Harry**, before Hagrid arrives.
SEVERUS- alone in his office after his first class teaching Harry Potter, thinking of the task assigned him by Dumbledore*.
JAMES- eleven years earlier, holding his baby son.
Song
[SIRIUS]
Strangely quiet, but now the storm
Simply rests to strike again
Standing, waiting, I think of him**
I think of him
[SEVERUS]
Strange, this Harry, he leaves the room
Yet remains, he lingers on
Something stirs me to think of her
I think of her
From death she casts her spell
All night I hear her sighs
And now a boy has come
Who has her eyes
He has her eyes
[JAMES]
The boy has Lily's emerald eyes
Those eyes that saw me happy long ago
[SEVERUS]
Those eyes that gave me life
And hope I'd never known
How can he* see the boy
And miss those emerald eyes
[JAMES]
He has her eyes
The boy has Lily's emerald eyes
[SEVERUS]
Those eyes that closed and left me all alone
Those eyes I feel will never ever let me go
How can I see this boy who has her emerald eyes
[JAMES]
In Lily's eyes a castle
This house seems to be
And I, her bravest knight became
My lady fair is she
He has her eyes
He has my Lily's emerald eyes
[SEVERUS]
Those eyes that loved my rival- never me
Those eyes that never saw me
Never knew I longed
To hold her close
To live at last in Lily's Eyes
[JAMES]
Imagine me, a lover
[SEVERUS]
I longed for the day
She'd turn and see me standing there
Would God had let her stay
[JAMES]
He has her eyes
He has Lily's emerald eyes
Those eyes that first I loved so
How can
I now forget
That once I dared
To be alive and whole
In Lily's eyes
In Lily's eyes
[SEVERUS]
He has her eyes
My Lily's emerald eyes
Those eyes that saw me
Happy long ago
How can
I now forget
That once I dared to be in love
Alive and whole
In Lily's eyes
In Lily's eyes
