Don't shed a tear for me, I stand alone
This path of destiny, Is all my own
Once in the hands of fate, There is no choice
An echo on the wind, You'll hear my voice
Some choose to fall behind, Some choose to lead
Some choose a golden path, Laden with greed
But it's the noble heart, That makes you strong
And in that heart, I'm with you all along...
The old village lantern, Is calling me onward
Leading wherever I roam,
The old village lantern, A light in the dark,
Bringing me closer to home
So when you think of me, Do so with pride
Honour and bravery, Ruled by my side
And in your memory, I will remain
I will forever be within the flame
Now at the journey's end, We've travelled far
And all we have to show, Are battle scars
But in the love we shared, We will transcend
And in that love, our journey never ends
Don't shed a tear for me, I stand alone
This path of destiny, Is all my own
Once in the hands of fate, There is no choice
An echo on the wind, You'll hear my voice
You'll hear my voice..........X2
