Alaina

In a greener clime, with flowers fresh
Where the sun on high shines bright
I often think of my true love
Of the one who is my light

Life I found upon her lips
A world within her arms
Her eyes, as I gazed deep
Soft, seductive charms

And in her eyes I saw, a passion fevered soul
That piece which I was missing
The piece to make me whole.

Two souls had met, had intertwined
The two then felt as one
Their bond was blessed, made sacred true
By the setting sun.
