| Welcome Home, My Dear, Sweet Lover-Boy
 
 
| Welcome home, my dear, sweet lover-boy! Each day that you were gone I held my breath.
 Love waits behind a chain as cold as death,
 Crazy to embrace its long-lost joy.
 Open now your arms and my life save!
 More waiting will my aching heart destroy!
 Each moment gone is like an empty grave.
