"Little known they may be,"
said Elempi,
"but the lyrics are meet
and the music sweet.
I give to you a band of limited fame:
'October Poject' is their name.
Troubadors of great merit they,
for giving Aragorn's answer to Eowyn's fay
as he left her alone
among Dunharrow stone.
This is or could be the thought
of Aragorn in a new peril caught."
Chords begin playing in arpeggio on an acoustic guitar, the only background; a single spotlight reveals the singer.
If I could
I would tell you all the truth
I would love you
From the heart
If I could
I would take you in my arms
Take you inside
Into my heart
If I could
I would be the one you seek
When you're hopeless
And afraid
I would shine
Like a lantern in the dark
Take you inside
Into my heart
Though you feel as if
You've found the love you crave
Another claims my heart
If I could
I would always keep you safe
Take you inside
Into my heart
Though you feel as if
You cannot bear to live
I tell you that you are strong
If I could
I would love you as you are
Take you inside
Into my heart
Into my arms
Into my life
If I could
The spotlight goes out, leaving all dark. Dark as Dunharrow.
