Island of Darkness

She laid on the ground watching him stand over her He stood, not moving She didn't know what to say or do just wanted to take him in her arms tell him it was okay But he turned and galloped away into the sunset And she saw Her knight in shining armor galloping away A knight in shining armor galloping away He left her there, not rescueing her, not turning back Her knight in shining armor He stood over her as she laid on the ground He didn't know what to say or do couldn't say "I'm sorry, gal Sorry I did it" He turned away in shame and regret He galloped away into the sunset And she saw Her knight in shining armor galloping away A knight in shining armor galloping away he left her there, not rescueing her, not turning back Her knight in shining armor Years passed by He got a new lover She stayed single waiting for her knight in shining armor They moved away from each other pretending not care about the other But when she heard about his lover she looked into the sunset And she saw Her knight in shining armor galloping away A knight in shining armor galloping away He left her there, not rescueing her, not turning back Her knight in shining armor left her stranded on the Island of Darkness
