The Prince's Tale

The Prince's Tale

Snape:
I see you there
Wind blows your hair
As you swing
And I'm ten years old
And you're beautiful
As you swing

Lily:
You tell me I'm
A witch and I fly
Off the swing
My sister's scared
But I am prepared

To try to make magic
With you
My magical childhood friend
Somebody that I can depend on
To help me
Depend on to hold me
And I
Think I would die
Without you

Snape:
I see you there
Green eyes, auburn hair
At Hogwarts
I'm fifteen years old
And you're beautiful
At Hogwarts

Lily:
Nobody likes you
But I will stay true
At Hogwarts
James taunts and jeers
But I keep you near
And try to make magic
Both

With you
My magical childhood friend
Somebody that I can depend on
To help me
Depend on to hold me
And I think I would

Snape:
Die
Without you
I'm sorry!

Lily:
Save your breath!

Snape:
I didn't mean to call you

Mudblood

Lily:
You didn't mean to call me mudblood

Snape:
It just sort of

Slipped out

Lily:
Didn't it? Well Severus get out!

Snape:
You don't mean that!

Lily:
Don't I?
I've made excuses for you for years!
But now I know you've made your choice.
And you have chosen evil.
"You just can't wait to join You-Know-Who, can you?"

Snape:
I'm all alone
Cannot atone
For all I've done
So I
Serve You-Know-Who
Evil through and through
Can't be undone
I'm twenty years old
And you're beautiful
Though you're not here
This prophecy
Predicts that he
Will kill you, James, and Harry

He couldn't keep you safe, though
Dumbledore
Couldn't keep you safe so
You were killed
And I vowed I'd keep your son from harm
Working as a spy for
Dumbledore
Working as a spy for
Sixteen years
Wish that I had died then
In your stead

And then one day I finally I learned the truth
Everything I'd done for you-for Harry
Had been done for naught

As hard I tried
Harry had to die
Always
And I'm thirty-eight years old
And you're beautiful
Always
Always her
My magical childhood friend
Somebody that she could depend on
To help her
Depend on to hold her
And I
Know I will die
Without her
And I will love her
Always
