-A Thief Wedding-
On the deck of a sailing ship cruising around the bays just south of Baldur's Gate, a very exclusive guest list gathers for a very exclusive wedding. Those few present who are not affiliated have been vetted for their ability to keep their mouths shut.The bride and groom exchange vows and rings, and declare their love for one another. A passionate kiss seals their union, and bodes ill for the wealthy of the Gate.
They watch their first sunset as wife and husband.
Today,
I left my house and I started walking,
Barefooted out to the water,
My eyes won't sleep.
And I walked,
Out to the bridge where I once had met you.
I could feel your footsteps,
Under my feet.
But now there's nothing I can do,
All my life,
I've waited here for you,
To make my dreams come true,
The force to get me through.
All my life,
Like waves upon the sand,
the ocean meets dry land,
My heart is in your hands.
Yeah.
I know,
I must be crazy or superstitious,
But I swear I thought that maybe,
You'd be here.
But now, I look around your in all my senses,
But it breaks my heart to see the view so clear.
You say you only needed time,
But time has been so cruel,
And there's nothing I can do.
All my life,
I've waited here for you,
To make my dreams come true,
The force to get me through.
All my life,
Like waves upon the sand,
The ocean meets dry land,
My heart is in your hands.

Jump on board
Take a leap of faith
How can we feel so close now
Yet be so far away
If I could have you just once a year
Let it be the longest day
It's illusive as the present
I will love you either way
I will love you either way
Oh my friend, don't be afraid
Of smoke and mirrors
Oh my friend, this is our day
For hope and forgiveness
Don't you want this as much as I do
Don't you want this as much as I do
This could be a very long day
I wouldn't hold my breath now
Did I hear you say
Were we on the same wave-length
Were we under the same rain
I'm not anticipatin'
What I had prayed for
I could have been more courageous
If only I had got out of my way
Oh my friend, don't be afraid
Of smoke and mirrors
Oh my friend, this is our day
For hope and forgiveness
Don't you want this as much as I do
Don't you want this as much as I do
This could be a very long day.
