Let's keep this to ourselves, lock your lips with mine.
It's called a secretive romance, a fantasy lived out.
Hold your breath, don't say a word of this to anyone.
Doing just that, can ruin such a blissful thing.

We're walking in the placid woods, just holding hands.
Its almost too sweet a thing, the sugar made you sick.
But all we're doing is living, being normal.
So how could something so beautiful, be a mortal sin?

Consequences are dire, if they were to know.
Keeping the sanity level, to the minimum, thats the outcome.
Why can't they just be happy for us, being happy?
Sometimes I just wish we could run, into the distance.

Holding your hand in mine, doesn't feel wrong.
Must they act so rabid, why does it matter?
I thought love was love, and a bond was to not be broken.
I don't see why you should be punished for it.

The law not letting us join in holy matrimony.
Do they not want us to be in their society.
We, and they are, are but living human beings.
Flesh to flesh, bones to bones, ashes to ashes.

Pressing my lips against yours, feels so natural.
I never want to let you go, never loosening my embrace.
My friend, my love, my companion, my everything.
I tell them loving her doesn't make me a freak.

All our lives, we've hidden in the shadows.
The shadows of boy with girl, the way they say its supposed to be.
Well not for me, and I'm standing up for my rights.
I'd never give her up for the world.

The second that the law allows our type of partnership, I will be with you forever.
Althought our parents may not like it, its us who will be happy.
Now I just hope you don't fall under pressure.
I'll hold you tight, so you don't, don't leave.

And the day they came for us, we didn't go.
We fought and fought, I heard a gunshot, and jumped in front of you.
I smile up at you, whispering "See I told you, I love you so much I'd take a bullet for you."
With those final words, my heart stopped beating, my eyes close, my head falls limp.

Your vengeance factor turns on.
And all you can do is put your engagement ring on a thread with mine, around your neck.
My spirit with you, I tell you not to cry, and I try to wipe your tears away.
You feel my cold hands against your cheek, holding you, although you don't see me, for the last time.

I still lurk in the shadows, watching you.
you shoot up the town, wearing our rings, never stopping until you kill my murderers.
Finally you reach them, asking if they remember you, but before you get the chance to finish they bolt.

My love, you chase them down like a vampire for virgin blood.
Crying in fustration, your heart breaking.
You trigger the gun, as they do, your body falling like I promised I wouldn't let it.
I see your spirit leave your body, I walk to you, putting our rings back on eachothers fingers.

Now we can be together, no-one can stop us again.
We go to the chapel of the dead, and read our vows, stareing at eachother, smileing, our hands joined once more.
I kiss your lips, feeling them fully, being able to hold you again.
Our vows over, we say our "I do's" and head home, where the coroners are just takeing our bodies away.

I laugh, being happy again, knowing what that feels like once more.
We set our honeymoon, the time we get together, without being disturbed.
Our night that we are no longer virgins to eachother.
Then we spend the rest of our lives, together forever, like I promised.
