By A Thread (Alternative Version)

[Verse 1]
By the light of the moon
Not a second to lose
Two star-crossed lovers entwine
And they fold into one
’Till their strength is all gone
Like this might be the last time
Though they long for the dream in their minds

[Chorus]
As they lay side by side
On that cold starry night
And they held each other tight
He whispered her name
Over and over again
You’re beautiful and you are mine
By a thread

[Verse 2]
They were carried away (carried away)
On a powerful wave (powerful wave)
Which swept their fears aside (fears aside)
Leaving nought but love in their eyes (in their eyes)

[Chorus]
As they lay side by side
On that cold starry night
And they held each other tight
He whispered her name
Over and over again
You’re beautiful and you are mine

If it takes my whole life
To make you my bride
I won’t rest until that time
All the storms we have faced
That tried to break our embrace
Didn’t win, ’cause you’re still mine
By a thread

[Chorus]
As they lay side by side
On that cold starry night
And they held each other tight
He whispered her name
Over and over again
You’re beautiful and you are mine

If it takes my whole life
To make you my bride
I won’t rest until that time
All the storms we have faced
That tried to break our embrace
Didn’t win, ’cause you’re still mine
