The Lantern

The Lantern - The Rolling Stones (滾石樂隊)

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 every 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
