My world was dark and lonely when my father went away.
But in one glance, you turned that bitter darkness into day.
You touched my soul, and yet I knew how far that I must stay...

Because you asked me to.

I knew you didn't love him, and his love was just a show.
I knew it from the day I watched you dancing in the snow.
And I'll betray the ones who care, and why they'll never know...

Because you asked me to.

Now I'll go back to my tower, though I loved you from the start,
And mourn our separation, so few miles yet worlds apart,
And hold you never in my arms, but always in my heart.

Because you asked me to.
