[intro] [chamber orchestra]

[Verse 1]

In a grove of evergreens,

with butterflies in the air,

I see you looking so serene,

A gentle wind moving your hair.

[Verse 2]

A deer was watching from afar,

Mesmerized and enchanted,

Hoping to stay and watch more,

but ran to fields the farmer planted.

[Chorus]

My search for love has come to an end,

You’re my everything, through thick and thin.

I want this day to last forever,

The feelings I have I’ll never sever.

[Verse 3]

At last, we’re alone in Hemlock woods,

I suddenly feel whole, as indeed I should.

But I am nervous and lost for words,

Spellbound, replacing nouns with verbs.

[Verse 4]

You’re so angelic, your beauty so rare,

Your twinkling eyes, the scent of your hair,

I want to be perfect, but I know I’m not,

Kiss me dear, make my rambling stop.

[Chorus]

My search for love has come to an end,

You’re my everything, through thick and thin.

I want this day to last forever,

The feelings I have I’ll never sever.

[Verse 5]

Our parents may object because we’re young,

No matter what they say, our love has begun,

We can’t let them divide us, I know how I feel,

The way you look at me tells me it’s real.

[Verse 6]

Our secret meeting was like a dream,

With my future bride, or so it seemed.

Her touch sent sunbeams through my soul,

The feeling of true love is powerful and bold.

[Chorus]

My search for love has come to an end,

You’re my everything, through thick and thin.

I want this day to last forever,

The feelings I have I’ll never sever.

[Outro]
