When I sprang into song
Sitting here on my own
When I sprang into verse
Wishing I would be heard
I saw thee smilin’ at me
Verily or just my fantasy?
Regarded I thee at the counter
Of this humble little pub
Tonight men sing with glee
Drinking songs, come what may
Tonight I sing with thee?
Maybe yea, maybe nay
I rather liked it thy way
How thou shyly placed thine eyes on me
Knewest ever thou
That I had mine on thee?
Dear sir, so there thou art
With tender countenance
As though thy brow be sure
As though thy heart be pure
But if doubt thy thoughts should make
Shall I pinch to rouse thee awake?
If frownest thou then
I will know that thou art no dreamer
So let me sit with thee
Close as I wish to be
Close enough for me
To feel thy heart beat with haste
And linger as I whisper
How I loved thy peaceful eyes on me
Knewest ever thou
That I had mine on thee?
Dear sir, so share with me
Thy love if thou hast enough
Thy tears if thou holdest back
Or pain if thou sufferest
How can I teach thy heart
That I am more than thy dear friend
Just reach for me then
Thou wilt know verily thou dreamest not
Dear sir, so there thou art
With tender countenance
As though thy brow be sure
As though thy heart be pure
But if doubt thy thoughts should make
Shall I pinch to rouse thee awake?
If frownest thou then
I will know that thou art no dreamer

These lyrics are the primary submission media. The uploaded image has been uploaded purely to help illustrate them and to provide a thumbnail. These lyrics are partly a parody (because of Cyan's speech patterns), and partly not (because they're still sweet). I'm not actually in the habit of shipping these characters, but this idea was just too precious not to do.
EDIT on November 8, 2025: With consultation, it's been agreed that the line, "As though thou art secure," doesn't fit the linguistic style well enough. I've changed it to "As though thy brow be sure."
