Beneath the Thorn

מילים

[Intro] [Melancholic English horn solo] [Deep cellos, celesta, and harp entrance] [Verse 1 - Female Singer] Whispers fall like frozen leaves In the garden where the darkness weaves A crown of thorns, a silver light We walk together through the endless night [Verse 2 - Male Singer] A shadow bound to love the dawn Though every breath is almost gone I take your hand, the ice gives way We dance before the fading day [Chorus - Duet] Oh, hold me close before we fade In this dark kingdom we have made A bittersweet and silent prayer Lost in the cold, enchantment's air Forever yours, forever torn Beyond the rose, beneath the thorn [Bridge - Duet with Ethereal Wordless Choir & Swelling Violins] (Ooh... Ah...) A tragic grace, a whispered vow The shadows come to claim us now [Outro] [English horn solo with delicate celesta and harp] [Fading string swells into silence]
