The Lantern (Remastered 2017 / Stereo)

We in 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 doors are barred
You hear the stopping of my heart-we never part
So, please, carry the lantern high
