Chaugrelsch: Tomb I

Known since children We took upon each other As friends, we grew Separated by birth, only in mother No father should we Ever call the same Yet a family of friends Is what you would say It was late When we fell in love I say we, Like it was the both of us You love me as a brother does to another but it is you Whom I want as my lover She may try to hold you Like I sooner would But never could her passion Match the fire in my heart You don’t know our love You can’t think it To you I am forever But only as your friend Then it must rely to me To capture what’s mine To take your soul And warm it in my hearth No longer will she touch you No more shall you kiss Unless it is for me That you rest upon the lips If the boy in me Shall not win your love Than the man in I Shall steal away yours And hide her Never to be found Until your back in my home Right where you belong In my dreams, is the place where we are together Only in my dreams Do I have such power To make you stay with me Or to make all others fade Buried below my boards Never would they have A piece of my lover
