Lyrics

I met you in the meadow, my beautiful fairy’s child
Long hair down to the earth and green eyes so free and so wild
You fed me roots and black berries and kissed me with wine all day long
You made a king out of no one, entangling me in your song

And every night
I feel alive
Like I could fly up to the sky
I’ll give you my whole life

I’m gonna love you
I’m gonna love you until I die

You led me into your garden in the forest where no light gets through
And laid me down in the darkness whispering “Now there’s nothing you can do”
Then my days turned to months and then my months turned to years in a flash
Your soft golden hair wrapped around my neck lying there in the grass

And every night
I feel alive
Like I could fly up to the sky
I’ll give you my whole life

I’m gonna love you
I’m gonna love you until I die

You consume my essence until I’m cold, empty and weak,
But you’re not there beside me as I am tormented in my sleep
Where I meet emperors, princes and warriors warning me from the grave:
“You fool, she shows no mercy and her love will only make you her slave!”

But every night
You feel alive
Like you could fly
Up to the sky
And I’ll give you my whole life

You’re gonna love me
You’re gonna love until I die
