Disclamer: I do not own 'Lenore' or Harry Potter


Snape's Lenore
by marie fisher

oOo

Oh, gone is the flower so kind! Her name hangs in the air

And with her gone, I have to go on, as if I did not even care

And, Dumbledore, do you care no more, show me please some mercy

She is lost to such a cost, dear and loving Lily

This is the end of and era, but the war has just begun
it is not fair that she is dead, for she died much too young
it is not right that she is dead, for she died much too young

oOo

Prat! You loved her for her beauty; you wanted her for the game

And when she loved you truly, you never felt the same

You waltzed her into this, with your smooth and charming tongue
this is the end of that chase, but the war has just begun
it serves you right that you are dead, even if you were young

oOo

She is now free, and may her name be a song to every ear

I gave my word to protect your son, so take with you no fear

Oh, sweet lily, I was so silly to not confess my love so true

And though we part, you still have my heart, forever and for only you

A flower so fair, with fiery hair and shining emerald eyes
life still sits upon her face, but not within her eyes
and life still sits upon her face, but not within her eyes

oOo

Up in a shack my vision's black, but no sadness haunts my soul

I shall be seeing her tonight, and hear laugh of gold

There be the flower fair –sparkling eyes and fiery hair – up amongst the clouds

If they find me out and shout it out, let it be clear and loud

Over is the war that many years ago had begun
it still is not right, but it's a bit more bright –only the good die young
it still is not right, but it's a bit more bright –only the good die young
