A man finds love but isn’t prepared to sacrifice the life he has for bliss. He doesn’t give his love enough attention, paying in the end with what he loves most.

Eyes as bright as sun gone blaze
So the flame was when they met
Bliss as close as he could get
Love as pure as God could bless
Then she came to love and care
As she said she wouldn’t dare
Gave her heart and all her might
So Rake could take and be her date
Rake had sailed his past behind
But never would he trade his ace
His was life of wave and wane
And so he came to hurt his queen
As calm as morning dew can be
So she set to heal her Soul
And knowing he had torn her heart
Came and tried to make her buy
Mighty Princess with a staff
Made her mind to make him pay
With a lovelorn heart to heal
Such is life with poor old Rake
