I met a lady
she burns with life
rages against the relentless years
proclaims victory against the subtle decay
but builds a wall of hidden fears
I met a Lady
ravaged in youth
fought for every minute of life
brought her children to Heavens gate
but hesitates to face the truth
I met a Lady
who burns with fire
yearns for one more glimpse of love
dreams of one more shining knight
one last act of hearts desire.
I met a Lady
rises for the break of day
soundless chuckle for girlish dreams
his face fading with sober thoughts
one more soul who cannot play.

I met a lady
she burns with life
rages against the relentless years
proclaims victory against the subtle decay
but builds a wall of hidden fears
I met a Lady
ravaged in youth
fought for every minute of life
brought her children to Heavens gate
but hesitates to face the truth
I met a Lady
who burns with fire
yearns for one more glimpse of love
dreams of one more shining knight
one last act of hearts desire.
I met a Lady
rises for the break of day
soundless chuckle for girlish dreams
his face fading with sober thoughts
one more soul who cannot play.
