Chased we were into the dying woods A mob of armored men on the crimson horizon In all that I do, it was and is for the love of you
Fugitives are we For what? A serious crime it must be To fall in love with him and he to love me Promised to another man I was But I'll be ****** if I live a life without love
Jealousy of a man has derived A bounty on your head dead or alive And double the reward for my return Every tender loving night with you Will forever within me burn and burn
Bitter is the understanding Between we two You say to me "I'll never stop loving you" Stopped in our tracks with a fruitless plea He tells me to go back, that he'll always be with me For he'd rather watch me from afar with another man Than me be forever a fugitive in a foreign land
A stubborn gal I've always been This argument presented, he knows he'll never win I'd rather run forever or be dead Than spend a night in another man's bed!
This hopeless romantic devotion I am overtaken by fervent emotion As a hail of arrows rains down upon us I give my love one final embrace And stare the reaper in the face
Every piercing blow testament of my intense dedication I knew this love was not without ramification His beautiful body I shield with my own These dead woods will forever be my home
I'd rather die than see the one I love suffer, especially if I am the cause.
