[If You Promise]
I'll never forget when we
painted the town white,
With rice, white roses
and that wedding dress
For you were simply
elegant and stunning,
When you were waltzing
to me,
Your lover
To express your vows
To immortalise our love
With our glistening rings
that lit the church,
The symbols of our bond
For you were my universe
and I was your star
In the enormous state of
your beauty,
I exsisted
For you captivated my
eyes with
That stunning smile,
That silky smooth hair,
That slim waistline,
And oh!
Those snow white teeth
too
That froze the smiles of
everyone who beheld
you
For your beauty was like
ice in the eyes of men
It froze each person that
attended our wedding
Including myself,
For I couldn't get used to
it;
Used to those sparkly eyes
Used to those cheery lips
In this winter wonderful
that we created
For the future of our lives
For the evidence of our
love
So be my queen and die
by my side
As my wife, As my love,
As my life,
And promise me that you'll
honor our vows
Like the love that I have
for you
For neither the hells
Nor the heavens,
Can tear me away from
you
For in the hells you're
my demon and I'm
your devil
And in the heavens
you're my angel and
I'm your guardian,
So I'll continue to be the
star in your universe,
If you promise that you'll
be the sun to my darkness.
