SpectralChord - Whispers of Love Lyrics

In the 1850s in a time so strict
Two men found love in England's mist.
An herbalist with a gentle hand
And a gardener who tilled the land.
Their love a secret a whispered truth
In a world where it could cost their youth.
Forbidden love in the shadows they stayed
A sister's watchful eye their joy betrayed.
She saw their love and felt the shame
In the eyes of society they bore the blame.
Hearts intertwined in a time so cruel
In a world of secrets their love was the jewel.
But jealousy and fear cast a dark spell
In a tale where love and tragedy dwell.
The gardener's sister with a heart of stone
Betrayed her brother left him alone.
To an asylum she sent him away
Their love silenced in the light of day.
To save his love the gardener did plead
To the doctor a false tale of need.
But the sister's hatred knew no end
She poisoned the herbalist a tragic end.
Made it seem like a desperate choice
But the truth was drowned lost in the noise.
Yet the spirits of the betrayed rose high
With anger and sorrow they filled the sky.
Hearts intertwined in a time so cruel
In a world of secrets their love was the jewel.
But jealousy and fear cast a dark spell
In a tale where love and tragedy dwell.
The ghosts of love in vengeance did find
The sister's guilt her peace became her hell's
For the night the whispers stay
Of two men's love that never fades away.
In the echoes of the past their love survives
A tale of sorrow where their spirits rise
And maybe one day they will find each other again in a other life.
