lyrics

SHE WENT FOR LOVE

To heal the king, here`s the chance,
no one knows the art better than her.
She asks her heart to name the price,
everybody sees the love in her eyes.

Gilette:
"Promise me my Lord,that he will be mine.
If I heel you not
give me the cruel death at the stake.
He is my sun,this is my fate:
to love him!"

Gilette-Narrator:
"Rider, rider, hiding your face!
He took my (her) happiness away..."

Gilette:
"I want him back..."
Narrator:
"He doesn`t love you..."
Gilette:
"...here by my side..."
Narrator:
" ...you will wait for ever..."
Gilette:
...for all my life!"
Narrator:
"A cruel man..."

Gilette:
"What a starless night,
words as cold as ice..."
Gilette-Narrator:
"No tears, women with brave broken hearts
always fight for true love!"

Gilette:
"Long time ago,
a man has stolen my heart
and now I hide,
lying in wait
to hold him gently in my arms"

Gilette-Narrator:
"In the darkness pleasure we (they) find.
How strangethe games of his mind"

Gilette:
"A sweet delight!"
Bertrand:
"Here comes the sunrise!"
Gilette:
"Your precious ring..."
Bertrand:
"You deserve it`s fine grace..."
Gilette:
"...I wear in my hand!"
Bertrand:
"...a proof of love!"
Gilette:
"Time is on my side,
here`s you and your bride"

Gilette-Bertrand:
"Lovin`,singin` the finest of songs
in the dawn of our life!"
