the room fell silent
as she entered
and never had i seen such beauty rendered
of breathtaking splendour
elatedly centred
i offered my heart freely
with no need to be surrendered
.
if there was fear
then it heightened her senses
made her alert to the slightest offenses
nothing contentious
for she had made clear
she was not here to lead the offensive
quiet and pensive
advisedly reflective
her privacy respected
for until this night my eyes had been defective
and never more so timely an incentive
.
one last chance
my one last chance defining sweet caress
.
one last dance
my one last chance defining sweet caress
(sweet caress)
(yes)
.
queen of the arena regale
queen of the arena regale
queen of the arena regale
queen of the arena regale
(sweet caress)
(yes)
.
queen of the arena regale
queen of the arena regale
queen of the arena regale
queen of the arena regale
(hail)
.
my fleeting hope to freely roam
agreed to need repeated dose
to feel her heartbeat clinging close
its sweet tone uncontested
.
my fleeting hope to freely roam
agreed to need repeated dose
to feel her heartbeat clinging close
its sweet tone uncontested
.
had she made request for me to die within her arms
then my death in a respect would not have mildly bid alarm
with purpose she strode
red rose in her palm
in one motion
my troth i invested
in power she vested
we shared the same breath
and with that
there was only a single choice left
as gentleman i felt obliged to make polite address
request her hand
for one last dance
my one last chance defining sweet caress
.
queen of the arena regale
queen of the arena regale
queen of the arena regale
queen of the arena regale
(hail)
.
one last chance
my one last chance defining sweet caress
.
one last dance
my one last chance defining sweet caress
.
had i not seen with my very own eyes
then i would have been blind to a scene so divine
that the angels could barely contain their green envy
such was her eminent tide
.
with no great ado
we bade adieu to space and time
the room remained silent
as we braided mated twine
became of one posture
one frame
flame
spine
and danced until the day became of night
danced until the day became of night
danced until the day became of night
.
queen of the arena regale
queen of the arena regale
queen of the arena regale
queen of the arena regale
(hail)
(hail)
(hail)
