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.
