Behold this night, still and clear
You look here just like an angel sleepin'
I wish I could ease your fears
I would catch diamond tears you're weepin'
In your eyes I would hide
By your side I could defy
The forces tearing us apart
But reality, as it seems
Looking back, is that our dream
Was fated from the start
Girl, we're star crossed and can't escape
We're condemned and can only wait
At this time, now it's far too late
To save us from our fate
I'll remain in your hold
Body, mind, heart and soul
As long as I breathe
Though consequence takes its toll
All is out of our control
That's how it will be
So close your eyes, my young bride
Listen to me one last time
There's something I have to say
When your faith turns to despair
Always will my love be there
And never fade away
Girl, we're star crossed and can't escape
We're condemned and can only wait
At this time now, it's far too late
To save us from our fate
You can't save us
You can't save us
(You can't save)
Girl, we're star crossed and can't escape
We're condemned and can only wait
At this time now, it's far too late
The poison's in our veins
It's true
You know that I'd die for you
You know that I'd die for you
(Forever true)
You know that I'd die for you
(I'll see you through)
