Been tucked away In a tower for all her life Now forced to bride In candlelight She scorns her dress And in the shadows, I hide I'll take thy life But in another night You should have been my wife The lord's at hand It's his fault his plan His word which drives my knife Ooh Ooh Ooh One last kiss Oh for you princess I'd leave it all behind And we could run away Baby just you and I We need to runaway It'd haunt me if we never tried Before the break of day A new life your hand in mine And with a twist of fate We'll sneak off into the night Paramour, a chance at life Beseeched you in the dead of night You grabbed it never thinking twice Troubadours, playwrights Inspired by your sacrifice "The Princess Who Had Chosen Life" They write And so with haste The unlikeliest of lovers disappeared into the night With a love betwixt the two so great Not even the swiftest of spearmen Wisest of warlocks Or the mightiest of the king's mercenaries could tear it in twain
