Evelyna (I Adore You) Poem by Paul Henry Dallaire

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
and watched 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
