Charles starts writing furiously.... scratching out words, making new lyrics, "no no that won't work..... Wait... perfect... " scribbles some more... "Finally... done... Alright's friend, go have a seat and I'll play your tale... " he begins to perform.
(Verse 1)
In the swamp's embrace, 'neath the starry veil,
A drow and a guard, their secrets unveil.
Nightly talks 'midst the croaking amphibian choir,
But perilous whispers set their hearts on fire.
(Chorus)
Oh, in the shadows where love's forbidden song,
Two hearts entwined, a tale both short and long.
Under moonlit skies and the gaze of distant stars,
They danced in silence, bound by love's memoirs.
(Verse 2)
Forbidding orders, a commander's stern decree,
No outsiders near, a whispering decree.
Yet, she slipped through shadows, into the forbidden space,
A stolen moment 'fore the impending chase.
(Bridge)
As dawn painted the canvas with hues of red,
Two souls entangled in love's delicate thread.
But duty called, a march into the unknown,
A mission grim, seeds of regret were sown.
(Chorus)
Oh, in the shadows where love's forbidden song,
Two hearts entwined, a tale both short and long.
Under moonlit skies and the gaze of distant stars,
They danced in silence, bound by love's memoirs.
(Verse 3)
Goblin horde, an enemy ruthless and cold,
A village lost, its story grimly told.
Commander's edict, to vanquish, erase,
Yet love's whisper lingered in the haunted space.
(Outro)
Under the quiet of night, a decision profound,
A lover's escape on silent, sacred ground.
He sent her away, in shadows she'd depart,
A love forbidden, a fragment of his heart.
