lyrics

Is it in the lap of the Gods?
So sad it ends, as it began
To speak now would be such a waste
Silent sentiments, on the self penned playwright

Gentle steps, the air doth sway
A white silk gown, cloaks her way
Ooh-ooh what have thee seen?
To gaze at perfection, my hearts I ache

And dry my lips, no sound would make
Just a gentle kiss my mind would play
'Neath her window I will wait
My darkest fear I speak to late

My Queen, its evermore I will wait
Is it too folly to dream
That we might be
We'll run away in a lovers dream

You take my hand and in silent speak
Like Romeo and Juliet played out in classic style
Until the other side of our evening
When we rest for a while

I'll hold my peace when your vicious bite is unleashed
And in your bridal down that goes on (and on) forever
The fairy-fellar comes to say
The matinée is always better

And love when it's you that is slacking
And the words just never seem to flow
Did you kiss the frog and find your Prince?
They say who wants to live forever anyway?

What are you trying to say?
Do you still love me?
The words you speak to me
Mean just nothing

I'm trying to say what I mean
I can't look around
I feel just like Rodolfo in Act One
Can you hear the sirens song?

But you've hurt me
You've hurt me
I didn't mean to hurt you
You hurt me too

There's a ploughman, a wagoner and a politician in the corner
Do you still wear your bridal gown
Or has the fat lady started singing?

Through the bars of the rain and the town
Or is it the pause of your vision, your decision
I ask the question
You know the answer

Can I love you?
Does he love you?
Can you still say you love me?
Do you love me?

Oooohhh

I never did write our love song
Now we're awake to realities wake
If this is time for us
Will you look back over your shoulder and cry?

Is it too late to say I love you?
Is it too late to say I love you?

Ooohhh
Ooohhh
Ooohhh aaahhh

Can you still say you love me?
Can you still say you love me?
Can you

Is it in the lap of the Gods?
