about
Nothing is fair in love and war, especially in love... this was the candle of remembrance I lit with song for the girl who was Right in Front of Me, yet, so very far away. It brings us up to date. This is the history of my Stained Glass Heart, now a complete story.
lyrics
Maiden Fair
Words and Music by Scott Ibex
This is the last song I’ll write of you,
Oh my sweet maiden fair.
They might say I never loved you,
they don’t know how my heart ails.
Guess sometimes in life, things don’t work out,
Even if you said we’re meant to meet.
Sometimes you have to let love go fair,
if it comes back then you’ll see.
Maiden fair, I really loved you.
Maiden fair, you made me breathe.
Maiden fair, I will think of you.
Maiden fair, my heart you’ll keep,
Yes Maiden fair my heart you’ll keep
And though we part more as strangers,
it seemed I knew you from the start.
Maiden fair, I’ll always love you,
somewhere deep inside my heart.
Life is strange. Love is hard.
You never know just what you’ll find, when your heart is blind.
Sometimes, no matter how much, you wish,
What one sees the other hides, and what one seeks the other finds.
Maiden fair, I really loved you.
Maiden fair, you made me sing.
Maiden fair, I will think of you.
Maiden fair, my heart you’ll keep.
Maiden fair, my heart you keep.
