By A Thread (Alternative Version)

(album: Lady In Waiting - 2021)

By the light of the moon
Not a second to lose
Two star-crossed lovers entwine
Mm
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
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
They were carried away
On a powerful wave
Which swept their fears aside
Leaving naught but love in their eyes
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
Oh
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
