As I recall, a sea of green (The story starts and this is how it's been told) The fairest maid I have ever seen (And from this day his heart was ever so bold) Is it right? Is it wrong? Guess time will tell But what will they say back home? (What will they say back home?) I fought them all and I fought them well (And that's an act of bravery alone) She made me believe, made me choose Trust in her words and then just lose it all ♪ In times like these, in times like those (Thе time was right for him to take a chance) It's what I seek, of what wе speak In her grace and my how we danced For all things holy Hope and glory Rise and shine Now is the time For merry-making and fireworks in the sky Raise our glasses In triumph and laughter Sing hallelujah, rejoice he was found ♪ The silence so eerie My dear, I gave you my all Danced to the sound of a world in despair Fading hopes but our future laid bare Blessed and now the dice it was cast We came to taste our freedom at last ♪ The wheel of time And so many miles (The end of our tale is drawing near) For what a way to end my trials (He remembers the words he held so dear) A promise made and a promise saved And I know what they say back home So when they lay me down to rest (Words of pride will be carved into his stone) She made me believe, made me choose Trust in her words and then just lose it all Rise and shine Now's the time For merry-making and fireworks in the sky Raise our glasses In triumph and laughter Sing hallelalalalujah! Rejoice, he was found ♪ Danced to the sound of a world in despair Fading hopes but our future laid bare Blessed and now the dice it was cast We came to taste our freedom at last
