Goodbye England's rose, may you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that placed yourself where lives were torn apart
You called out to our country, and you whispered to those in pain
Now you belong to heaven and the stars spell out your name
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never fading with the sunset when the rain set in
And your footsteps will always follow you
Along Englands greenest hills
Your candle's burnt out long before
Your legend ever will.....
Loveliness we've lost
These empty days without your smile
This torch we'll always carry for our nations golden child
And even though we try the truth brings us to tears
All our words cannot express the joy you brought us through the years
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never fading with the sunset when the rain set in
And your footsteps will always follow you
Along Englands greenest hills
Your candle's burnt out long before
Your legend ever will.....
Goodbye England's rose, may you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that placed yourself where lives were torn apart
Goodbye England's rose, from a country lost
Without your soul, we'll miss the wings of your compassion
More than you will ever know
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never fading with the sunset when the rain set in
And your footsteps will always follow you
Along Englands greenest hills
Your candle's burnt out long before
Your legend ever will.....
Your footsteps will always follow you
Along Englands greenest hills
Your candle's burnt out long before
Your legend ever will.....
