16 Candles |
As the fire burned low |
And the clouds rolled in |
Tragedy came a-calling |
For to claim the service |
Of many a man |
Ships that sailed in the morning |
A swarthy neck |
And a heart of oak |
Fit to fight for a king |
And they set their bows |
To a heathen shore |
To crush the pagan sin |
And the poor girl wept |
As she bade him farewell |
Sworn to wait for her lover |
And she’d light a candle |
For every year gone |
Memories fine and tender |
A stolen kiss under |
Spring’s new moon |
A secret shared in the dark |
She would count the days |
Till his sweet return |
Would cure her broken heart |
«Fight with me for victory!» |
The aging general lied |
«The time has come |
To take the throne |
For god is on our side» |
And the cannon roared |
As the rivers ran red |
Sick the song of a martyr |
For on every side |
Stank the stiff, blue dead |
Sacrificed to disaster |
Still the girl he had |
Left behind |
Keeps his memory strong |
For she hopes in vain |
For her love’s return |
Now 16 candles gone |
