Romeo's Crusade
Romeo Oh Romeo
Will you chase me across the world
Swim the lakes and oceans
Just to claim me as your girl?
Will you fight the nation's armies
Will you fight until the death
Just to spend your final moments
Lay sleeping in my bed
Will you drink up all the poison
Would you cut straight through your wrists
If something or if someone
Were to stand between our bliss?
Juliet oh Juliet
Of this is all you ask?
TO lay dying in your arms
Is my one and only task.
