Estate
You bath me in the glow of your caresses
You've turned my eager no to tender yeses
You sweep away my sorrow with your sigh

Estate
Oh how the golden sunlight bends the willow
Your blossoms send the perfume to my pillow
Oh who could know you half as well as I

I always feel you near me
In every song the morning breeze composes
All the tender wonder of the roses
Each time the setting sun shines on the sea

And when you sleep beneath a snowy cover
I'll keep you in my heart just like a lover
And wait until you come again to me - estate
