| I sit here by your side
|
| And weep you goodbye
|
| I’m singing songs of sorrow for you
|
| True gentle rose of mine
|
| Upon my arm I’ve tied a ribbon in black
|
| Although I know too well that this
|
| Will not ever bring you back
|
| I feel so astray inside
|
| As I know you’re far away
|
| Let my love shine and be your guide
|
| On your way towards the portals of light
|
| A lonely candle burns for you my only love
|
| Meanwhile you roam the clouds among
|
| Heaven’s angels high above
|
| What is there left to live for
|
| As you’ve gone away?
|
| Hope’s lost forevermore
|
| I’ll mourn you 'till the end of days
|
| Hear, my love
|
| Hear my cry of deepest grief
|
| As I weep for you eternally
|
| Praying for your soul
|
| And for light and for relief
|
| As I she’d your tears of misery |
