[ Featuring Kevan Gallagher ]
For many winters I have lain
Unclaimed and ignored
And then you came, you carried me
To the one that you adored
But who are you?
We don't quite fit
My love is far away
And you don't have my blessing
To grace your wedding day
No, you don't have my blessing
To grace your wedding day
Will someone look inside me
And see what's written there?
You'll find the name of someone else
A maiden once so fair
I've lived a life before you
I've held a single hand
Betrothed to my beloved
United by this band
The circle still unbroken
Although we're torn apart
I long to reunite us
To give my whole, my heart
To give my whole, my heart
Will someone look inside me
And see what's written there?
You'll find the name of someone else
A maiden, who knows where?
And will someone take me there?
You walked right through the churchyard
You took your byway home
You stopped and turned and saw a name
Worn almost from the stone
You knew that name, it rung a bell
It read Ophelia King
You'd seen it line the inside of
That long-forgotten ring
That long-forgotten ring
And something overcame you
We call it destiny
You laid me here upon that stone for eternity
Ophelia, Ophelia, lying here with me
You laid me here, upon her grave, for eternity
