It Reads Like A Fairytale, And That's What It Was

Young Man In His Prime, Young Girl From The Cross

The Most Perfect Of Strangers, And Then The Night Closed In

And The Holy Ground Took Care Of Everything



Now She Was A Fine One, And He Was A Handsome Man

One Look Was Enough, And Away They Ran

They Spent Many Happy Hours And Then The Night Closed In

And The Holy Ground Took Care Of Everything



Oh What's The Use In Complaining?

In For A Penny, In For A Pound

I Remember The Loving Time

And Nothing Else Really Counts



And I Recall The Promise They Made

With A Faith I Can But Admire

That She'd Be The One He Adored

And He'd Be Her Heart's Desire



It Didn't Come True In The End, They Went Their Separate Ways

He Couldn't Change What He Was, She Wasn't Ready To Wait

They Couldn't Live In The Daylight, They Let The Night Close In

And The Holy Ground Took Care Of Everything



They Couldn't Live In The Daylight, They Let The Night Close In

And The Holy Ground Took Care Of Everything

They Couldn't Live In The Daylight, They Let The Night Close In

And The Holy Ground Took Care Of Everything



I Remember The Loving Time

And Nothing Else Really Counts
