The Prince and His Bride They’d been sweethearts for awhile, and nothing should have changed She could hardly help but smile, at the mention of His name For He was such a handsome prince, and she would be His bride He had promised she would reign with Him, forever at His side
Oh her joy was so contagious, and her love, grew oh so strong He was gentle and courageous, she thought nothing could go wrong But her gaze would sometimes wander, and the dragon saw his chance He caught her eye, and by and by, he lured her with romance
Oh the dragon, he was charming, and the girl enjoyed the chase He was clever and disarming, he disguised his wicked face Then he took her to his castle, where the sun refused to shine There he locked her in a dungeon, “Now at last the girl is mine!”
But the prince was still in love, and he said “Dragon, name your price” The dragon laughed, “the girl’s a tramp, she isn’t worth the sacrifice!” But the Prince said, “She’s my Bride, and there’s no price I wouldn’t pay” So He stretched His arms out on a cross and gave His life away
Now He dreams about His bride, the girl He died to make His own And He often dreams about the day, He’ll come to take her home Has the girl grown fond of darkness and her dragon-captor’s charm Or does she dream of her Beloved with His outstretched, waiting arms
Will she recognise her Prince, the One who loved her from the start Or will she send Him home, alone to mend His now twice-broken heart? |
