Evelena (I adore you)
Verse: Verse:
Behind my door there's a beautiful old mansion
and in the yard bloom roses all around
Chorus
I adore you Evelyna tho they say you can't be mine
my heart yearns dear Evelyna without you I'd rather die
Verse:
I know a girl who lives high and in fashion
but her parents don't want me to love her
Chorus:
I adore you Evelyna tho they say you can't be mine
my heart yearns dear Evelyna without you I'd rather die
Now I, ve panned for gold in Flynn Flon Manitoba
I could see the Geese fly South in the fall
In flight they sing of liberty and freedom
while I'm in chains at Cupid's beckon call
Now I will go in the midst of the redwood forest
and live my life in the shadows of our dreams
there on a tree I'll carve your name and mine love
my Valentine of precious memories
Chorus: end

This was such a tragic, beautiful, love story. Thank you. I enjoyed it. And that name is such a lovely name: Evelyna.
