Her Voice On The Phone

Her Voice On The Phone
Please let me be for many are the yearnings of my being tonight again,
For the tomorrow I see not
And the day I found not myself in
From this other side of the world
Because I am in love
And wants to have my crown earlier than waiting
For many years to come and heartbroken it has left me with
To this I'm not fine!
Leave me deep down here in the dungeon
and let water flows it up and
Let me be found in the later days drowned
As one who could not be loved
For a confessed fate and
Death at least ends my heart breaks
