Default Critique please. Song for Medieval Wedding

Hi guys, I need your opinions/critique.

One my girlfriend's best friend is getting married at the end of July in Sweden and I was asked to perform a song (sing/play) plus accompany the bridge on guitar as she sings a song for the husband.

My girlfriend and I decided to write a song for them as a gift, she wrote the lyrics, I wrote the music and sang it/recorded it.

The theme of the wedding is MEDIEVAL, of course I wasn't going to write a medieval tune, I just wrote something I can play there with only an acoustic and it'll sound good, that's why I stayed with acoustic gtr only. (maybe I'll add some strings to the chorus in the recording (we will burn a few cd's for them)

This is an ALMOST finished recording...I just need to fix the end, the vocal line at the end (hitting the high note) will be in harmony with a lower voice, so it'll seem a bit too high by itself right now.

What else would you add/change or simple comments in general if you don't think anything else is needed.

thanks!

btw, here are the lyrics:


Whenever winter is coming

I will be your candle light

When my temper grows

in the pain of wounded heart

You cease my fears and aches

with your ever gentle touch



Chorus:


You picked me up when the wind
blew
in the face of hopes gone by

I held you close, 
time raced,
unknown became
forever yours,
forever mine

We are one



Whenever night is falling

I will be your starry eyed

When the darkness sinks

in the ink of northern night

I will be the shine which 

makes your breathing gasp
