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 |
