Hope you like it
It's not too difficult to work out which Tudor lady this is about, but you’ll have to do some research to find the poet I’ve quoted from. Yes, I think I met her in this life and I may have been that poet.


White Falcon

As dawn broke red in that misty May sky,
You said your lord was noble and kind.
Your blind desire of estate
Meant your fall was mortal from that lofty place.
Even in those terrible days
I knew we’d meet again

Chorus White Falcon take to the wing
Rend the night like lightening
White Falcon, your moonlit spell
Will send thunder through the realms.

You flew from the tower and followed the coals,
To the warmth we knew of old.
As the lightning struck the church
Once more our lives converged.
How and why I lost you, I can’t say
But I knew we’d meet again

Chorus

M8 As I stare into that magic mirror’s screen
I see our trio playing out the scene,
Five hundred years of destiny.

“I’m in a mess” you said, in tears at my door.
“What used to heal is poison to the core”.
So, I’ll take you away
To heal in the low low valley and not push too hard at the gate.
For although there’s still some pain,
I knew we’d meet again.
