__A Love That Cannot Be__
You and I are different,
Of that none can deny.
You're fair, and pure, and perfect,
"The apple of my eye"
how could I compare,
To such immense beauty?
How could I hope to live up
To all the wonders you bring to me?
After all, I'm just a "Savage"
Just a stupid, wild, thing.
And you're the picture of perfection
The likes of which great minstrels sing.
You're sweeter than the thickest honey,
Than sugar fresh picked from the cane,
And I can't have just one taste of you,
Lest need for you drive me insane.
You're a prince-heir of Imladris,
Future Lord of Rivendell.
And though, I know, we cannot be,
That thought alone is living Hell
I only wish that we could be,
As one-forever more.
If only I could see the future,
To see what Fate does have instore.
If only Fate would find a heart
And grant a lover's dream
And let me hold you-dusk till dawn-
To see in the waning sun, your ebony hair gleam
If only I could hold you tight
And never let you go.
To show my Love for you each night-
A Love that always grows.
If I could wish for anything,
That wish would be for you.
'Cause you embody all that I Love
You are my dream come true.
But I am but a "Savage"
And you are Royalty
So because I'm of the "Pack-Kin"
Ours is a Love that cannot be.
You and I are different,
Of that none can deny.
You're fair, and pure, and perfect,
"The apple of my eye"
how could I compare,
To such immense beauty?
How could I hope to live up
To all the wonders you bring to me?
After all, I'm just a "Savage"
Just a stupid, wild, thing.
And you're the picture of perfection
The likes of which great minstrels sing.
You're sweeter than the thickest honey,
Than sugar fresh picked from the cane,
And I can't have just one taste of you,
Lest need for you drive me insane.
You're a prince-heir of Imladris,
Future Lord of Rivendell.
And though, I know, we cannot be,
That thought alone is living Hell
I only wish that we could be,
As one-forever more.
If only I could see the future,
To see what Fate does have instore.
If only Fate would find a heart
And grant a lover's dream
And let me hold you-dusk till dawn-
To see in the waning sun, your ebony hair gleam
If only I could hold you tight
And never let you go.
To show my Love for you each night-
A Love that always grows.
