Oh stabbing at my heart like a sharp knife
Yet shielding my heart from the painful thrust
Fear and courage, my emotions in strife
Searching for my dear friend, to whom I trust
Cutting through the thicket my heart racing
Unknown beasts howling into the cold night
Is she tremulant? Is she suffering?
Distraught and distressed I head for the light
Shocked at the betrayal on which I stare
Ashamed, by my trust so freely given
I see her with my dear love standing there
In his arms, she cannot be forgiven
Without trust there is no courage within
Knowing the truth, that fear will always win
