"A prince and an heiress,
Matched by fate.
Not your choice,
But I wished for it to be my destiny.

I shouldn't have asked for you,
I shouldn't have been the one you saved.
Now you're looking at her,
Like how I'm looking at you.
I'm yours, for an eternity,
But you'll never be mine.

You hold my hand at the banquets,
It's so cold, but still warms my heart.
The bloodline rules say we should fall in love,
But I'm just a river under the bridge.
We head to sleep in the same room,
Still the bed's always cold on your side.

I'm not the one you need,
But I don’t want to be set free.
You nursed my injured foot,
But what about those shards in my heart.
I never asked for anything,
I only need your love and care.

Don't let me down, shut me away,
Please let me in, please love me.
Look at me, hold my hand,
Say I ain't river under the bridge."
