She fills her head with tales of love and tragedy, In war-torn cities and rival families to ancient melody, Tossing and turning, on her bed She lives the lives of lovers so young and foolish and sweet. She dreams of Orpheus, his melancholy and his music. Of Seigfried and his journey to the damsel he seeks. Then Samson who fell twice in the hands of a woman. And Romeo who no longer felt the need to run. Now,the morning light urges her to wake up. The dreams disappear and the longing suddenly stops For she knows that though tragedies may happen, She still looks forward to that day she will meet him.
