Awake she does sometimes at night
Feeling her age, impaired her sight
In eyes once Blue now more so Grey
Alone she is, alone she's stayed
Not long ago her yesterdays
Were filled with love as was his way
Who never failed to tell her so
Devoted half who too grew old
Thief of her heart who shared with her
A home, children, her soul he stirred
That gave his all, no less than this
Sealed with his lips on lips hers kissed
Each night lying by her bedside
Whisper He would sweet lullaby's
That spelled to her all that he felt
When asked back then on knee he knelt
Would you be kind and marry us
My life we give to you we trust
For you are who brings out the good
My Maid Marian of this Robin Hood
We promise too honor, obey
In sickness, health and to always
Till death does come and us it parts
These vows he crossed upon my heart
She moves slowly and out of bed
She keeps and prays for him she wed
Although now gone, not far away
Is he that stayed now and always
So if you see this lady grand
Whose hair of silver today demands
Some time of yours to hear her tales
Of love she keeps, his path she trails
