Far Too Soon

Forgive me, please, he said to her
If I loved you too much
Beneath the secret tree, there they were
Smiling as their fingers touched
You should know, she said, for me
Too much could never be
Where you go, I'll go, I'm yours, you see
Your love has set me free
He squeezed her tight, made her his wife
And promised her the Moon
Her eyes shone bright, they lived their life
They sang a merry tune

He's gone now and so is she
Buried under her Moon
Lying under the secret tree
All over far too soon
