You looked at me with eyes of grey,
I knew you were my one.
Your hair was red as brightest day,
It blazed just like the sun.My heart is yours, my dearest friend
That from my home has come-
From Emond’s Field your journeys wend,
And yet from me they run.
Oh yes, I knew you were for me
The moment I first saw
Your eyes the colour of the sea
That caused my heart to thaw.A girl that spoke to me one day-
One fateful day of flight!
Told me that you and I’d not stay
A couple ‘neath the Light.
O woe, my love, don’t say it’s so!
I knew you since a child-
My love is free to stay or go,
For you it’s running wild.Three girls to find, and you’re not one-
My dear, I love you yet…
And still, though you’re my sun
The sun must always set.
Three girls to find, and yet not me?
My hands they tremble, now,
How can you say these dreadful things,
How can you make this row!The Wheel of Time weaves as it wills…
Speak not of Wheels, speak not of Time!
They both are nets to hold-
My love is endless as the rhyme
Of Ages long untold.I speak because I’ve got a crown,
And you have got a Seat…
A Daughter Heir with eyes that drown
This day I chanced to meet.
The stole no longer is a gift,
It is a burden hard…
And yet, the Tower is my charge,
I have to stand as guard.Goodbye, my dear, I’ve had my say
And miss your arms I do…
But fate has bound me off away
From home, from friends, from you.
I see. The harder sight I have of you,
The world is bound beneath
The chains that hold, with war as glue
And swords are on your wreath.I must away, my precious friend,
I have a State to run-
I’ve found my three, and they love me,
You’ve ceased to be my sun…
The Wheel of Time weaves as it wills.
Err, it doesn't look good with the bits on different sides of the page, but it's the only way I could see to make it look like two people were talking.
