I was just thinking about a song I used to hear back when I used my Pandora station. It was set to Industrial/EBM/Goth music, but it eventually always seemed to drift over to playing some of what I’d call “Ren Faire music” (artists like Celtic Woman). I didn’t mind because I like that style too.
Anyway, the song. All I remember about it was that is had a very Ren Faire/medieval feel to it. The subject was a woman who had been forced to marry a young boy (he was like fourteen or something) to form a political alliance. She wasn’t crazy about the idea, but eventually grew to love him because he was a good person. He went off to war at sixteen and died, and she was left to raise their child alone. There was a line about him being “very young” or “too young” or something like that, and a verse where she watched him playing sports with his friends.
I bet this one won’t be too hard, but my Google-fu is failing me.
