Bells, whistles, smile if you must.
Today holds the symbol of unbelievable trust.
Forevermore we will remain, side by side, hand in hand.
Revelation, revolution shook the very fibers of the land.
What is control? What is normalcy?
If both can be destroyed in just a breath.
Like a roulette wheel, fate spawns us many chances...
But instead of "22 RED!" It gives us Death, or birth, or awkward romances.
Imagine us together, you and I, alike.
Me trying to impress you, drunk, screaming into the mic.
Laughing together, or dangling from fifth thousand feet up.
From a Fire-Nation blimp, scared to Death, like a nightmare I can't wake up.
But now is illusion, or at least, so it seems.
For the past two hours have contained the stuff of dreams.
Your silken body, delicate, yet firm.
We rocked together in solitude, seeking relief from the cold...And were warmed.
Afterwards, we sang and laughed. I got drunk, again, acted daft.
But you stood by me, even in that bar fight.
It was by a grace of God that I came out, all right.
So we left the place in ruins, not caring about Tomorrow.
The rising sun gave an answer to me, in the long run...
It all turns into sorrow.
So these windows are now frosted, and you should be in my bed.
You'll accompany me into eternity, cause you never left my head.
The winter outside matches my interior.
I watched it happen, unbelievable, I've never felt so inferior.
Just one kiss, and you were stolen away.
Two hours of Lovemaking...But nothing gold can stay.
Your tippet, only tulle, we lowered you into the ground.
I was digging for a miracle, but one couldn't be found.
So we closed the lid on the happier times of my life.
Taken by the rapier of Death, by disease and plague, no knife.
I still do wake up screaming, but it's only in my head.
To imagine, not even wanting to fathom how close you came to being Dead.
Hearing you whisper in my ear, makes eternity worthwhile.
I don't care if I sound foolish, I'd bend the world to see you smile.
Hold my hand, you do, and now.
You're back with me, once more.
Shake by a silent assassin, who knows remorse, no more.
Bells and whistles, these tears are of joy.
For there was a marriage, then, one girl, one boy.
And into the rest of life we went, cherishing eachother, as if Heaven sent.
And you lay beside me, always smiling, always guiding.
Suki, you are my wife, everything more, nothing less.
I suppose I could say that I've been blessed.
Because my cursed love has finally faltered.
We stood before that snowy altar.
Something like figments of a dream, but this is real, this is serene.
The cold sweats and black knights will never fade away.
I came so very close to knowing...
Nothing gold can stay.
