Lyrics
Verse
Under the boughs of the whispering trees
Where shadows stretch and dance with the breeze
Two hearts met by the river’s bend
Bound by love
Doomed to end
Verse 2
She wore a ribbon
Red as the dawn
He carved her name on the old oak drawn
Promises made under twilight's shroud
Fate was watching
Cloaked in cloud
Chorus
The broken pines
They sigh
They moan
Echoing tales of love turned stone
A kiss
A tear
A fleeting flame
Two souls apart
Yet one in pain
Verse 3
A storm rolled in
The skies did cry
The river swelled
The mountains sighed
He reached for her
But the flood ran deep
A love so fierce
Yet time won’t keep
Bridge
The village speaks of the lovers lost
Of choices made and the heavy cost
Beneath the pines
Where the shadows lean
Their story lingers
Unseen
Serene
Chorus
The broken pines
They sigh
They moan
Echoing tales of love turned stone
A kiss
A tear
A fleeting flame
Two souls apart
Yet one in pain
