Lovely mourning dove of my dreams
I long for you with all my heart
Cannot bear to be apart
Be we together surfing moon beams
Or soaring high chasing sun rays
Manoeuvering playfully in the sky
In pursuit of every butterfly
I need you all my nights and days
Forever darling I will be true
My heart to you I surrender
Tell me at least I’m a contender
I offer only true love entre nous
