(JaggerRichards)



We, on our present life,

Knew that the stars were right.

That if you are the first to go,

You'll leave a sign to let me know,

Tell me so.

Please, carry the Lantern lights.



You crossed the sea of night,

Free from the spell of fright

Your cloak it is a spirit shroud.

You'll wake me in my sleeping hours,

Like a cloud.

So, please, carry the Lantern high.



Me, in my sorry plight,

You waiting ev'ry night.

My face it turns a deathly pale,

You're talking to me, through your veil,

I hear you wail.

So, please carry the Lantern light.



The servants sleep,

The door's are barred.

You hear the stopping of my heart-we never part.

So, please carry the Lantern high.
