The towers rise up ahead, along the river Thames A minstrel starts to sing The gentlemen bat their eyes and all the women sigh But I keep walking forwards and then with a grin on my face I'll return to you, Your Grace!
Our eyes entwined, a golden enchantment bestowed upon us Our hands slowly cemented our star-crossed love
Oh from this day forward to thee I belong Oh, oh I belong
No maiden nor concubine shall I become of thine No bastard to my name Oh my ruler I do implore forget, annul what was before! And lead me, beguile me and make me whole
Oh from this day forward to thee I belong Oh, oh I belong
Henry, must we dwell on bygone days Must we act as in a bygone age While it is in your hands to separate! Annul this marriage as head of state Break with Rome and break with fate
My lips beckoning to kiss you, oh make me yours My hips beckoning to thrill you, oh make me yours
And could thee comfort neither church nor the queen My king, please be wise else my soul in prison lies
Our eyes entwined, a golden enchantment bestowed upon us Our hands slowly cemented our star-crossed love Our lives entwined, the promise awaited now I am your bride Violently you commenced and shamed my pride
Oh from this day forward I belong to thee Oh, oh I belong
Lay with me, stay with me, for I to thee - belong, oh Lord! Father in heaven please bless me with a son
