The Gorge Lyrics

I can hear these awful screams

It's you, sweet page, that haunts me dreams

Each night again I watch you fall

Each day a mark onto the wall

My husband never cared for me

And he will never set me free

I never meant to be untrue

And he'd not know were it not for you

Each day I walked through beech and pine

The sweet air filled my head like wine

Until one day I met a knight

For us it was love at first sight

I can hear these awful screams

It's you, sweet page, that haunts me dreams

Each night again I watch you fall

Each day a mark onto the wall

Weeks went by and all was well

But you would follow me to hell

You told my husband, jealous page

And sparked in him a burning rage

He rode to strike my true love down

My knight just turned his horse around

Away they ran towards the gorge

You took the tail of his great horse

I can hear these awful screams

It's you, sweet page, that haunts me dreams

Each night again I watch you fall

Each day a mark onto the wall

I never saw a jump so long

You clung so tight but were not strong

Away he ran as down you fell

Now I am dying in this cell

I can hear these awful screams

It's you, sweet page, that haunts me dreams

Each night again I watch you fall

Each day a mark onto the wall
