Lyrics:
Well, you came to me
You cooled my mind
The stakes were high
Impossible to describe
I loved you little child
How you mystified
Just a blinding flash
We were parallel lines

Love runs deeper from the underground
Love runs deeper from a broken home
Black angel can't be alone
Love runs deeper from the underground

In the shadow moon
Steel tears I cried
You were out of tune
It seemed to suit my dark side
You had a prophet's pose
And two states of mind
I was sure I'd go
We were parallel lines

Love runs deeper from the underground
Love runs deeper from a broken home
Black angel can't be alone
Love runs deeper from the underground

Love runs deeper from the underground
Love runs deeper from a broken home
Black angel can't be alone
Love runs deeper from the underground

Thank you!

This is great! I love the range of emotions you go through, that this is an established relationship vid that works really well, looking at their ups and downs and their relationships to their families and friends as well as one another, not just a 'look these two are pretty and giving each other significant glances!' vid. Awesome work :D

[rhivolution]

Thanks so much! I'm so glad you like it, as it's so hard to find stuff that's not just significant glances and...you know. It really just came together more than I thought it would at first go.

Nice vid, and takes me back to the glory days of watching several Trek shows each week. I liked the song for this, which on the surface would have been darker than I thought those two characters could provide together, but it does fit the mood of the vid.

Thanks so very much! The song lyrics are considerably darker than the actual track, though I think TNG's a bit darker than I as a younger viewer gave it credit for.
