A/N: Written as a 'What if' Pippin had died at the Battle at the Black Gate? A song from Merry to Pippin. I wrote this to match the tune of Reflection by Tim Janis (an instrumental piece), yet you'd have to play the song 3 times for all the lyrics to fit in (leading up to a total of 12 minutes and a few seconds).


Never your hair will I ever kiss again,

Never your face will I ever see again,

Never once more will it happen.

Why did I let you go,

Marching to your end,

I should have stopped you

Since I am your best friend.

We'd have been together

For yet long years.

Yet now, you have left me,

And I'm all amidst my tears.

Never your songs will I ever listen to again,

Never your voice will ever calm me again,

Never once more will it happen.

Never your eyes' light will look into mine,

Never your hand will be holding mine,

Never your soul be here, with mine,

Never once more will it happen.

Never your hair will I ever kiss again,

Never your face will I ever see again,

Never once more will it happen.

As I stand here alone,

I think of past happy days,

I remember so,

Of joy in many ways.

But since, things have changed so much,

The world has turned different,

So much I wonder now,

Where the good times had went.

Never your songs will I ever listen to again,

Never your voice will ever calm me again,

Never once more will it happen.

Never your eyes' light will look into mine,

Never your hand will be holding mine,

Never your soul be here, here with mine,

Never once more will it happen.

Never your hair will I ever kiss again,

Never your face will I ever see again,

Never once more will it happen.

My spirit passed from me,

I feel so see-through,

Anything I would do

To once more see you.

We'd have went right back home,

To the beautiful Shire,

And we'd have lived there,

And left this evil mire.

Never your thoughtlessness will make me laugh again,

Never your dances will cheer me up again,

Never once more will it happen.

Never your presence will reassure me again,

Never your skin will keep me warm again,

Never will you be here with me again,

Never once more will it happen.
