Wars in Love

The sweetness of silence
Our sorrow hanging in the air
Must we always fight?
Will we never fight fair?

If anything should happen
To you or to me
Though our fights are our wars
I hope you shall see

My heart is lying
My eyes will deceive
For it is you
For whom I shall grieve

I love you much more
Than your eyes can understand
When I jump
I will not land

Our love is like an airplane
You are my love
But should I jump off
I shall never recover

And so I ask for your hand
You sit, very strange
Marriage is what I wish
The wish I shall arrange

Your tears spill
The ring on your finger
I feel warmth and a rush
We must not linger

My decision was made
I will forever stay on board
But should you be in danger
I shall fight, shield and sword
