I'll meet you at midnight
By the old willow tree
We can't let them see us, baby doll
They can't ever find us here
This used to be fun
The rush I felt when you kissed me
The way my heart skipped when you touched me
It's life and death now honey
They tore me from your arms
Said, "He's no good for you"
I feel their eyes on me
Always watching, always waiting
Somewhere along the way
On the path to our secret place
I fell in love with you
But they'll never understand
They tore me from your arms
Said, "You only cause him trouble"
I feel their eyes on me
Always watching, always waiting
I'll meet you at midnight
By the old willow tree
To find my worst fears
My love swinging with a note pinned to his chest
This used to be fun
The rush I felt when you kissed me
The way my heart skipped when you touched me
It's life and death now honey
They tore me from your arms
They took you away from me
But nothing will keep me from your side
You are my one and only forbidden love
I'll meet you at midnight
In the lonely cemetery
I'll lie down beside you
Never to wake again
Author notes
Inspiration for this was: "Even in death" by Evanescence. And this is about no one approving of me and Bobby's love.

Great (again)
This part is just amazing:
"I'll meet you at midnight
In the lonely cemetery
I'll lie down beside you
Never to wake again"
I just love those lines! I can see how you were inspired by Even In Death. I love that song as well! -

C: I like that part too && "Even In Death" && "October" are two of my favorite songs by Evanescence.
