Today is the day I will save your life; I will die for your husband and best friend,.
But for me, this is hardly a difficult task; I can't find a better way for my life to end.
The last hope for my salvation, I pledged to be by your side,.

My sweet Lucie, please understand, this is something that I must do,.
This is my opportunity to leave my mark, and make my dreams come true.
I know you would die without your husband, and your happiness is my only goal,.
To die and let you live life to its fullest would be the deliverance of my debauched soul.
I had been hurting and suffering for years and years, my only feeling was pain,.
I know if I don't save your husband, all this sorrow will have been in vain.
Kiss your dear husband and child for me, and shake your old father's hand,.
Make sure you have them remember me, and let them know I"ll be in a much better land.
I went through life wasting my talent, and gave up a brilliant career,.

You were the last dream of my soul, and even though you don't feel the same way,.
Look back on this time and know I love you, please commemorate this day.
I see a bright future ahead of you, one filled with joy and love,.
From this day forward I"ll be your angel; I"ll look down at you from above. .
Night after night, my heart was aching, and my pillow was soaked with tears,.
But you became my sole inspiration, and you dissipated all my fears.
I know that Charles means everything to you and of course so much more,.
I know you"d be pained without him and that would break my heart to its core.
Your husband has done nothing wrong, yet he was unjustly condemned to die,.
