A Lover's Wish

Rosakara13: Yeah! Chapter 2

Jareth: That was so humiliating.

Rosakara13: Be a man!

Jareth: Why would I have Hedgewort advise me?

Hoggle: Hey!

Rosakara13: Enjoy!

Tears streamed down Sarah's cheeks. As she walked through the door to her house, all seemed

quiet. "Sarah!"

"Yes Dad?"

"I'd like to talk to you."

"Coming." Sarah walked up to her room and found Robert in her bed, with her notebook in his

hands. "Who is he?" Robert asked his daughter.

"Who?"

"Jareth?"

"How dare you! That is my private life!"

"Sarah who is he?"

"A guy I met!"

"And you have a crush on this guy?"

"No! I love him!"

"You don't know what love is!"

"Yes I do! He loves me too Dad!"

"How do you know that?"

"I just do."

"What are you going to do?" Robert asked softly. Sarah's eyes were filled with tears.

"I'm going to return to him."

"When?"

"Tomorrow. That way I can return my school books."

"Sarah you're a young girl."

"Oh Dad. I love this place, but...

How can I hope to make you understand

Why I do what I do,

Why I must travel to a distant land,

Far from the home I love.

Once I was happily content to be

As I was, where I was,

Close to the people who are close to me,

Here in the home I love.

Who could see that a man could come

Who would change the shape of his dreams.

Helpless now I stand with him,

Watching older dreams grow dim.

Oh, what a melancholy choice this is,

Wanting home, wanting him,

Closing my heart to ev'ry hope but his,

Leaving the home I love.

"Oh Sarah. I understand. Oh and Karen wanted you to have this." Robert handed his daughter the

peach. Sarah took it and smiled. The food that brought me closer to him. Hmm. I'll wait.

Jareth watched Sarah still, even though Hoggle told him that it was not good. "I love you Sarah."

Jareth watched her in fascination , she is beautiful and I'm a Goblin King unworthy of your love.

Yet you offer it to me. As I did to you, I accept it, and hold it my heart and will hold it in my

memory forever.

That night as the two lovers went down to sleep they pondered the thought of never knowing

each other or even meeting. Jareth looked into his crystal watching Sarah lay on her bed. Sarah

stared at her statue of him.

Jareth

If I never knew you

If I never felt this love

I would have no inkling of

How precious life can be

And, if I never held you

I would never have a clue

How, at last, I'd find in you

The missing part of me

In this world so full of fear

Full of rage and lies

I can see the truth so clear

In your eyes; so dry your eyes

And I'm so grateful to you

I'd have lived my whole life through

Lost forever

If I never knew you

Sarah

If I never knew you

I'd be safe, but half as real

Never knowing I could feel

A love so strong and true

I'm so grateful to you

I'd have lived my whole life through

Lost forever If I never knew you

Both

I thought our love would be so beautiful

Somehow, we'd make the whole world bright

I never knew that fear and hate could be so strong

All they'd leave us were these whispers in the night

And, still, my heart is saying we were right

Oh, oh

Sarah

If I never knew you

If I never knew your love

I would have no inkling of

How precious life can be

Jareth

I thought our love would be so beautiful

Somehow, we'd make the whole world bright

I thought our love would be so beautiful

We'd turn the darkness into light

And, still, my heart is saying we were right

We were right

Both

And, if I never knew you

I'd have lived my whole life through

Empty as the sky

Never knowing why

Lost forever

If I never knew you

Tears streamed down each of their cheeks. "Good Night Sarah." Jareth laid down and closed his

eyes. Sarah looked out the window, "Good night Jareth. Thank you. For everything." Then she too

closed her eyes. That night they dreamed of each other.

Their Dream

Jareth

Let me be your wings

Let me be your only love

Let me take you far beyond the stars

Let me be your wings

Let me lift you high above

Everything we're dreaming of will soon be ours

Anything that you desire

Anything at all

Everyday I'll take you higher

And I'll never let you fall

Let me be your wings

Leave behind the world you know

For another world of wondrous things

We'll see the universe and dance on Saturn's rings

Fly with me and I will be your wings

Anything that you desire

Anything at all

Everyday I'll take you higher

And I'll never let you fall

Sarah:

You will be my wings

You will be my only love

Wondrous things are sure to happen

Both:

We'll see the universe and dance on Saturn's rings

Jareth:

Heaven isn't too far

Sarah:

Heaven is where you are

Both:

Stay with me

And let me be your wings!

Rosakara13:That's it for now.

Jareth :I liked it!

Hoggle: What about Sarah?

Jareth: She's mine! Mine! My precious. (Grabs picture of Sarah and rubs it protectively) Stay

away!

Rosakara13: Please review!
