Deadly Love

I saw her standing in the light Her face a radiant glow My heart it raced Then skipped a beat Her skin as white as snow I went and said hello to her And heard her voice sing out My skin got tight Then like a fright My heart did faster go Each time I got to meet her Her inner beauty showed I stood amazed With heart rate raised True love did start to grow I met her on a bright clear day The question of my life I bent the knee Then asked to see If she would be my wife Her eyes looked down and with a frown She answered me that day You are my friend And not my love I cannot marry thee My heart was beating oh so fast My face did beetroot glow My heart in pain It broke with strain To end is pounding blows
