Torrents of rain from the heav'ns did pour, And flashes of lightning sent o'er and o'erA thrill to our hearts, deep to the core, You and I together.Galloping on with our prancing steeds Under close shelter of thickest treesYou and I together. When we at last halted 'fore a wild rocky caveAs cold and silent as a grave We entered, protected from the storm's rageYou and I together. We waited and watched, till the storm had passedYou and I together. And naught was heard, save the sobbing windIn the trees without, and the troth within Of two beating hearts, who vowed to impartTheir true plight forever, Ah! you and I together.
