This last rose I give to you
A symbol of my love so true
To you who once held my heart
I give you back yours
           different from the start

Your wounded heart I took in
I heard its call above the din
Took it in and held it dear
I filled it with love
           and kept it very near

Now my love, your heart is healed
To you love true is revealed
One thing now before you go
This rose gentle bird
           so my tears don't show

I seemed to have missed this as it was during my vacation from Passions...beautiful words, sincere and so from the heart.  A true romantic you are Sir Sven...if only you were not such a rare species.

Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence.

So heartbreaking, but still, pleased to see it again...for it means your heart still beats...
