The Rolling Stones - The Lantern
текст песни

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.
