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.....
