[Verse 1] I saw them first as children fair, With tangled hair and hearts laid bare. He caught her hand when she did fall, And promised then to guard through all. Through broken skies and morning’s door, They laughed, they cried, still lovers at war. [Chorus 1] Two hearts that rise where thunder calls, They build their dreams from crumbled walls. In play they fight, in fight they play, The dawn their truce, the dusk their fray. When storms would break, they’d cling once more, As waves that kiss a battered shore. Their wounds would fade, their vows restore, They’d smile and stand where pain had tore— Forever young, two lovers at war. [Verse 2] When youth was kind, they danced through flame, And every joy they’d call by name. Yet when the world drew blood and pain, They stood as one through wind and rain. Their quarrels brief, their bond still sure, For they were ever lovers at war. [Chorus 2] Their laughter rose through smoke and fear, Their courage burned when death came near. Each scar they bore became a thread, That bound the living to the dead. The field was red, their hearts still pure, Their faith in love the one secure. No battle’s end could bar their door, They’d find each other, hearts still sore— Unbroken still, two lovers at war. [Verse 3] Through peace and dusk, through fear and strife, They built their days, they shaped their life. He’d raise his sword, she’d calm his hand, Their hearts a flame none could command. Through every trial their souls endure, Unshaken still—those lovers at war. [Chorus 3] They planted seeds where ashes lay, And watched new light restore the day. Their home was built of hope and scars, Lit softly by their fading stars. When silence fell, they’d softly sing, Of summer suns and early spring. Their quarrels now were tender lore, Their peace hard-won from days of yore— Eternal hearts, two lovers at war. [Verse 4] Now years have carved their gentle grace, And silver crowns their timeworn face. Their laughter soft, their tempers mild, Yet in their eyes, that same bright child. Through every wound, their love is pure, Forever bound—two lovers at war. [Chorus 4] Their hands still shake but never part, The flame still whispers in their heart. Their memories drift like autumn rain, And wash the dust of loss and pain. Through every age, through time’s long shore, Their souls entwine forevermore. No death can claim what love has bore, They walk as one through heaven’s door— Still side by side, two lovers at war. [Bridge] Leboret of the Dancing Blade, And Kelora of Heartful Shadows— Their names were whispered by the brave, And feared by kings in golden meadows. Through every storm their vows were sung, Through shattered shields and blood unstrung. He fought for her when night would rise, She healed his wounds with tearful eyes. They carved their truth in mortal stone, No war could claim what love had sown. For though the years to dust may fade, Their souls remain where dreams are made— [Final Chorus] And they will die Together An old man and wife Together Leboret’s blade laid down at last, Kelora’s song through stillness passed. Their hearts will wake when stars implore, Their names will ring through evermore— For they are still lovers at war.
