[GUARD 1]
I have a wife I haven't seen
Since lilacs bloomed in Saint-Hippolyte
She always wears them in her hair
And she lets them fall down everywhere
I can see her in the glowin' light
Dressin' without a sound
I promised I'd be home all right
But I gotta lay this body down

So take this letter to my wife
And tell her that I loved my life
And tell my boys the Lord, he found me
When I say their names out loud, they're all around me
And tell 'em not to cry at all
Heaven is wherever I fall

[GUARD 2]
I have a girl, I think I love her
I should have told her, instead I told her mother
I gave her chocolates, I bought a ring
But I never told her anything
But I can see her in every detail now
Turning in my mind
I barely knew that girl at all
But I will love her 'til the end of time
So take this letter to my girl
Tell her that I saw the whole world
Say that right before I fell
I said her name out loud: Isabelle
Tell her not to cry at all
Heaven is wherever I fall

[GUARD 3]
I have a father, he isn't well
Thinks he might be going to hell
He was a sinner, he liked to fight
So I don't know, he might be right
I can see him every Sunday morning
Diving into the fray
He wasn't one of God's best men
But I loved him anyway

So take this letter to him, please
And tell him I can't wait to see him
I went in first, I rang the bell
I called his name out loud and I gave 'em hell
So tell him not to cry at all
Heaven is wherever I fall

[THREE GUARDS]
Tell 'em not to cry at all
Heaven is wherever I fall
Tell 'em not to cry at all
Heaven is wherever I fall
