Goodbye England's rose
May you ever grow in our hearts
You were
the grace that placed itself
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 fall you
Along England's greenest hills
Your candle's
burned out long before
Your legend never will
Loveliness we've
lost
These empty days without your smile
This torch we'll always
carry
For our nation's 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 fall you
Along
England's greenest hills
Your candle's burned out long before
Your
legend never will
Goodbye England's rose
May you ever grow in
our hearts
You were the grace that placed itself
Where lives were
torn apart
Goodbye England's rose
From a country lost without
your soul
Who'll miss the wings of your compassion
More than
you'll 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 you footsteps will always fall you
Along England's
greenest hills
Your candle's burned out long before
Your legend
never will
