Vincento and Marie
Sicilia, a beautiful island
With a very bloody plan
A few families at war
Murder, corruption and more
Vincento was a street soldier
Marie was a hitmans daughter
With their hearts full of lust
A secret romance is a must
As they belong to warring families
With no trust and rivalries
They couldn't keep their love apart
As they tried so very hard
Marie always in Vincento's arms
Defenceless to his charms
The families learned of the romance
Threatening murder at first glance
So Vincento and Marie ran away
Boarding a ship, destination USA
they wed in secret under different names
Vincento and Marie James,
After the towns priest
Who fought for Sicilian peace
Settled down to start a new family
Travelling in shadows constantly
Just waiting for the time they're caught red faced
In mafia wars love has no place
Always looking over their shoulder
But love strengthens as they get older
Hiding in a town that no Sicilian goes
Will they live forever? No one knows
