Goodbye England's rose May you ever grow in our hearts You were the grace that placed yourselves 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've 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 here Along englands greenest hills Your candles burned out long before Your legend ever will Loveliness weve lost Those empty days without your smile This torch we'll always carry For our nations golden child And even though we tried The truth brings us to tears All our words cannot express The joy you've brought us through the years Goodbye England's rose May you ever grow in our hearts You were the grace that placed yourselves Where lives were torn apart Goodbye England's rose From the 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've 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 here Along England's greenest hills Your candles burned out long before Your legend ever will
