Light the candles brother
I can hear the horses getting closer
And I'll be there to meet you Diane
I'll be there to meet you, Diane

I've been awake for a very very long time
I've been awake for a very very long time

Just like my mother
Just like my mother
Just like my mother
Oh

Go with your father for us
Learn how to help us when he's gone
And I'll be there to meet you Diane
I'll be there to meet you, Diane

Walk into the forest
But come back alive
And I'll be there to meet you Diane
I'll be there to meet you, Diane

I've been awake for a very very long time
I've been awake for a very very long time

Just like my mother
Just like my mother
Just like my mother
Oh
