Ever since you’ve captured my heart

Never have I thought from you I’d be apart

You have become my sun above

My wellspring of constant love       

You’ve shown me the way to paradise

Hand in hand, we’ve soared to heaven’s heights

You’ve brought me nothing but pure bliss

My life you’ve granted a new lease

Doubtless, dearest, because of you

My world’s been changed so completely true

Where clouds once roamed o’er my horizon  

Light has since so brightly shone

What more could I possibly ask this world 

When in you, I’ve found what I need to behold

Fame and fortune, I may not possess  

But my wealth goes beyond earthly riches 

How then could I live my life

If you would not be by my side

What’s there to look forward to

When all would be an empty morrow
  

Leave me not, my angel, I beseech 

Here I am, down on my knees 

I’d rather will this breath be my last

Than to tread once more my hollowed past
