As darkness falls and the stars appear
I close my eyes and dream of you, my dear...

I love someone it's fair to say,
She lives not near but far away...

I once went to Scotland, and there I did meet,
a beautiful lady, who was really quite sweet...

My Darling I wish you a Happy New Year,
oh how I wish that you had been here...

My name for you is beautiful
And my love, to me you are...

Today is your birthday and I'm sorry to report,
I have sent neither present nor card nor lovely...

I made a mistake, that I know
I thought we were ok, but apparently no...
