Valley of Golden Sorrow

Shining happiness is what you see

Across the plains,

the lands of thee.

Mistaken words

of stabbing sorrow,

arrowed shafts remain in my heart,

with every beat

a pulse of pain

with all my heart

I yearn for sleep,

an endless sanctuary

for everyday pain

too hurtful for

anyone to endure.

In my heart I know for sure

I'm better off in death's arms

but that of what my friends, I don't know

what they'll do,

what they'll say,

what they'll think.

I can only imagine and hope for love

that when I'm gone they'll mourn,

only hope I've made a difference

in that they'll miss me

and not pass my death

with reckless regard.

But just so long as mi amor shall stay,

I promise that I can endure

just another day,

just for her.
