Anakin's Lament
In my dreams she is dying
Behind my eyes I am crying
Somehow distant but still real
Has this clouded the way I feel?
Do I chase faster for my dream
Or for what it could possibly mean?
I know I am strong, but is it enough?
The future is so dark and rough
My friend is there and holds her hand
I feel as though I can not stand
Stricken down by my own desire
Trapped and burning in an open fire
In my dreams she is dying
Behind my eyes I am crying
I must be strong to save her from death
I will be the strongest, I will be the best
I will save the ones I love
I will go beyond and rise above
And save them from their fate
I must be the best before it's too late
In my dreams she is dying
Behind my eyes, I am crying
As I lay in my own defeat
We share her final heartbeat
I was too weak I couldn't save her
And then he speaks, "Rise, Lord Vader"
My pain runs deeper than he can see
I will save her, bring her back to me.
Padme's Song
My love does not wilt or grow weak
No matter the future or how bleak
It is strong and blazing and wild
The proof is here, I am with child
The dreams that torment your night
Are only just dreams that you fight
I am here and we are safe together
We are here as we will be forever
Why now do you turn away from me?
What is it, behind you eyes, you see?
My love, my love, calm down please
Calm down, it was only just a dream
You need not be worried, I am strong
And as long as your there nothing will go wrong
Do not turn away from me, do not leave
I may be young but I'm not naïve
Something is changing deep in your soul
When you tell me you're losing control
I see the smoke bellowing on the horizon
I stay up crying until the morning dawn
You come home, my heart starts singing
Even though your voice is not ringing
And you speak of a future for just us
In a low and frightening hush
Though you turn away and go
My every love continues to grow
A friend stops by when you are gone
The pain in his face tells me something's wrong
He asks the question he know is true
I don't understand…wait, no, I do.
I collapse, my heart, it shatters and breaks
Now I must save you from your mistakes
You turned from me, you don't understand
Please, I beg you, stop now and take my hand
I cannot live without you and I choose to die
I love you forever, but this is goodbye
In your dark dreams you saw me dying
And now I lay here, helpless and crying
I surrender my will to live if life is without you
I guess this means your nightmare came true
Please know that my love doesn't die
It carries on without you and I
Go and be strong, Luke, save your father
Be spirited and willed, Leia, like your mother
My end is here, but my love goes on
You'll feel it forever when I'm gone
I loved you since you were a slave pod racer
But my love is only for Anakin, not Darth Vader.
I do not own anything from or of Star Wars....except my imagination....:)
