Gallant...

Compare me not to a 
shallow spring...

for I present to you
on bended knee...

whilst I keep my sword
in sheath...

I will draw battle to
protect your heart...

the mere whisper of your 
name in vain...

...my courage will summons
the charge...

...this love more powerful
than this life I breathe...

this heart hungers for
this love you weave...
