George Gordon Byron, 6th Baron Byron, later George Gordon Noel, 6th Baron Byron, FRS (22 January 1788 – 19 April 1824), commonly known simply as Lord Byron, was a British poet and a leading figure in the Romantic movement. Among Byron's best-known works are the brief poems She Walks in Beauty, When We Two Parted, and So, we'll go no more a roving, in addition to the narrative poems Childe Harold's Pilgrimage and Don Juan. He is regarded as one of the greatest British poets and remains widely read and influential.
He travelled to fight against the Ottoman Empire in the Greek War of Independence, for which Greeks revere him as a national hero. He died at 36 years old from a fever contracted while in Missolonghi in Greece.
Byron was celebrated in life for aristocratic excesses including huge debts, numerous love affairs, rumours of a scandalous incestuous liaison with his half-sister, and self-imposed exile. It has been speculated that he suffered from bipolar I disorder, or manic depression.
Here I stand again, imprisoned in my dreams
like a ship without a sea
All my life I thought there must be something more
more than you and I can see
And when the sun is setting in the dark
then the night replaces the day
I have seen the light - like a burning flame
my visions all are getting clear
Without any fear I can walk my way
cause I know where it will end
My dreams will all become reality
and my suspicions will be gone
Dry the tears in my eyes, let me see the light
hold my hand when I die for all time
Let me feel your security all my life
Take me on your wings eternally
I’ve got just one heart, and it beats for you
I’ve got just two eyes looking at you
and I won’t let you go because I need you so
much more than I ever thought
Since I know the truth I am feeling free
like I never did before
All my fear has changed to faith and happiness
and forgiveness makes me strong
So I´ll be waiting for the final day
I know it will be a new start
Dry the tears in my eyes, let me see the light
hold my hand when I die for all time
Let me feel your security all my life
Take me on your wings eternally
I’ve got just one heart, and it beats for you
I’ve got just two eyes looking at you
and I won’t let you go because I need you so
A cold December-night
it changed his whole life
She’d not been long his wife
but in that night she died
Helpless - he stands there all alone
Lonely - a long hard way to go
When they first met the angels sang
It was love at first sight
Her lovely smile, her happiness
will never leave his mind
Oh, he loved to dance with her, oh, ohoho
Love stays forever
The pain is cutting deep
Love stays forever
It never disappears
Love stays forever - and again
The plans they’ve had are over now
He can not hold his tears
He tries to go his way somehow
but he’s to sad to bear
Oh, he can not forget her, oh, ohoho
Love stays forever
The pain is cutting deep
Love stays forever
It never disappears
Love stays forever - and again
In some nights he can find no sleep
Her spirit’s in the air
He feels her breath it goes so deep
He’s searching everywhere
Oh, he can not forget her, oh, ohoho
Love stays forever
The pain is cutting deep
Love stays forever
It never disappears
Love stays forever - and again
The fire in his heart burns on and on
And nobody can ever stop it
Because When you love, when you really love it will
never end
Trough the gates of heaven and the fire of hell
This love will stay eternally
Because this thing is for sure:
Love stays forever
The pain is cutting deep
Love stays forever
It never disappears
