Destined to fall madly in love

Star-crossed lovers

Doomed to fail and forever be apart

Star-crossed lovers

Destined to love each other with all that they are

Star-crossed lovers

Doomed to fail and die, forever apart

Star-crossed lovers.

A chance meeting

True love at first sight

Star-crossed lovers.

Some ancient deity sits on his throne and laughs at them

Everything is going according to his devious plan

Star-crossed lovers

Their love is pure and true, but as of yet

They have no idea that the moment they met

They became

Star-crossed lovers.

Anybody who sees it says it will last

But little do they know, the two are

Star-crossed lovers.

The ancient deity sets in motion his cruel plan

Their torturous fates are now sealed

They are

Star-crossed lovers.

The girl becomes mysteriously sick

The doctors say it will only end in death

Star-crossed lovers.

They say that it's contagious

Nobody is able to visit her

They will have to wait and see if she recovers

And if the boy will once more be with his

Star-crossed lover.

It'sa miracle! She somehow recovered!

The doctors say she'll be able to leave the hospital tomorrow

Star-crossed lovers.

The deity, watching over this tale sits on his throne and laughs

He lifts his finger, and he takes the girl's soul

Star-crossed lovers.

She is found the next morning

Lying still and unresponsive

When her love comes to visit.

He brings her flowers.

He sees her lying there

Thinking she is only asleep

Then, when he tries to wake her

He feels that she is cold.

He hardly chooses to believe it

He gets a doctor, fearing the worst

The doctor just shakes his head

Confirming his held in fears

Star-crossed lovers.

The deity sits on his almighty throne, laughing at the boy's fate

Finding somehow something funny in the boy's pain

Star-crossed lovers.

Her parents come in

They can hardly believe it

Everyone is in tears around her bed.

"Oh! How the good die young!" They cried.

She lived a beautiful life with much to live for.

But worst of all, he feels the pain

Of losing his one, his true, his only

Star-crossed lover.

Eventually they have to leave the room

Everybody watching with tearful eyes as she is brought out

The funeral was lovely, they sent her off brilliantly.

And all they had to say about her was that she was beautiful,

And that she was sweet,

A delight to be around,

Her death a painful tragedy.

But some aren't even able to speak

Broken down, with their tears falling endlessly.

And the boy stands up, when he has a chance to talk

And he spins the tale of their tragic love

The chance encounter on the day they met

It was love at first sight.

He tells of their beautiful love

Describing how beautifully it grew

Like a blooming rose in early spring.

Then he tells of their one and only kiss

And tears grow in his eyes

Ashe desicribes the magic he felt

The moment her lips met his

It only lasted a second, but he says

It felt like an eternity there with his

Star-crossed lover.

He describes how they never even realized

That their firstfateful kiss

Would also be the last they shared.

With tears in his eyes, he continues his tale of woe

The tale of the tragic two

Star-crossed lovers.

He describes that fateful morning

When he visited his love with flowers

And found her laying there dead.

And now, the crowd, who had listened with rapt attention

Started to cry once again

No longer just for the ill-fated girl

But for the tragic tale of the two

Star-crossed lovers.

But the cruel deity sits on his throne

Not a tear in his eye

He turns away from the destroyed love, now disentersted

He simply moves on to another pair of two

And renews the tragic cycle

Creating yet another fateful pair of

Star-crossed lovers.
