Verse 1:
In the shadows where I stand,
Steel and rage in my strong hand.
A warrior's heart, a warrior's might,
Battlefields call me into the night.
Chorus:
But every glance, every word you speak,
Takes me where my heart feels weak.
Am I a soldier, fierce and proud,
Or a lover hiding in a shroud?
Verse 2:
The armor clinks, my duty to bear,
Yet dreams of you dance in the air.
Noblewoman, beyond my grasp,
Why is it so hard to unmask?
Chorus:
But every glance, every word you speak,
Takes me where my heart feels weak.
Am I a soldier, fierce and proud,
Or a lover hiding in a shroud?
Bridge:
Stubborn thoughts, I keep them tight,
My heart’s a battlefield, ready to fight.
I’ve trained for war, I’ve learned the art,
But how do I battle what swells in my heart?
Verse 3:
Dreaming of moments we may never share,
Your laughter echoes, it lingers in the air.
In my dreams, I stand by your side,
But duty pulls me, like a raging tide.
Chorus:
But every glance, every word you speak,
Takes me where my heart feels weak.
Am I a soldier, fierce and proud,
Or a lover hiding in a shroud?
Outro:
As twilight falls on this worn, rugged road,
I’ll guard your heart, my silent ode.
For a warrior’s love is kept in the dark,
Yet in my shadows, you ignite a spark.
