Don’t Be Sorry, Lauri...

Don’t be sorry, Lauri

Lauri, don’t you worry.

Read the message in the bottle,

I’m coming to you at full throttle.

Take the message from the pigeon,

On the stream, from the widgeon.

In the sky, behold the swallow,

In your sorrow, do not wallow.

I’m coming to you, Lauri;

Sailing in my dory.

I am sending you a dove,

As a symbol of my love.

The sea is a little wild,

A bit like an untrained child.

I can almost see our home,

Through the waves’ frothy sea foam.

Your candle shines a bright light,

In this dark and stormy night.

Never worry, Lauri;

We will live our story.

I will hold you in my arms,

Gladly succumb to your charms.
