The Jester and DeLilah - Mike Martin
The jester made a gesture
To the queen of Aberdeen
A soulful crave
The willing knave
His passion could be seen
DeLilah Grace McGahee
She wears the wounds of war
Her heart she gave
A love to save
And offers up no more
Said the jester to DeLilah
I can see your eyes are blue
A smile she gave
Unto the knave
These blues can see through you
DeLilah then I cannot lie
Nor can I spare you gloom
For mine have seen
What lies between
The shadows and the doom
Said DeLilah to the jester
I can see your pain
Came what would be
All that could
A life of toil in vain
Said the jester in return
Just keep it for yourself
Not I who swore
To love no more
Her heart upon a shelf
Not I who bore the scars of war
And reigns on Aberdeen
But my DeLilah
Grace McGahee
Raving blue eyed queen
