There once was a girl who lived by lady bird shores.
Every eve she walked among
the crimson waves as the sun set gold
The lady birds would fly and dance
and she would sit and look, entranced.
There once was a boy who lived by raven song wood
and every eve, he would walk among
the sil ver trees, as the moon rose silver
his eleven ears would hear the hush
and the waves in the distance
one day the girl went wandering
into the wood at night
and she stumbled upon the
eleven boy
and the moon shone twilight
by and by the two became friends
the lady bird shore, and
the raven song wood
until one day he came to love her
he had only one secret to tell
I can see you no longer, lady bird,
for I am not what I seem
I cannot lie until forever
but I will love you ever still
my sweet lady bird
I don't understand, raven song
I love you more than life
what is bothering you
please come into the light
my dear ravensong
I cannot love you, although I do, lady bird
and I will tell you why
I have never touched the sun
for I am death
and you will die
the girl was shocked speechless
at this tragic news
for her eleven lover, was death
her legs could hold no longer
she felt her body fall
he looked at her with pained eyes
as her body fell
he caught her with his silken wings
before she hit the ground
he took her to her home, and hoped she'd be alright
there once was a girl who lived by lady bird shores
Every eve she walked among
the crimson waves as the sun set gold
she never forgot her eleven boy
she would love him forever
