LAMENT

There was a silhouette in starlight
Despairing lover crying to the night
The night, cold uncaring, listens not
The stars they see his pain is all he’s got

Oh lover, you who lament
I hear your sad cries
I alone listen in the dark’ned skies
For I too have loved and my love was scorned
Let you future lovers take heed, be warned

Love listens not to who cares who tries,
Love listens only to the fiery eyes
Love lives both in the wind and the rain
Tis love that is cause of all of my pain
Love is most there in the sea and the sand
Love is the master of all of the land
Love exists high in the mountains above
Tis true all our problems come down to love.
