When Once a Lovelorn Callow Swain

Crowned with the great honors he have given me Caped with the love meant for eternity Robed with the gown of sweet roses In my heart I feel the pain that vanishes. When the...

Precious Swain
This is for you, my precious swain Sorry for the occasional bad grains Despite all the different crimps Glad we're still strong on our limbs Remember that big major mistake? Deep down in my roots they still shake Now we live in the presence of the dark A difficult route we must embark Hold on strong, I will you please Soon with time they'll...
