Şarkı sözleri

[Verse 1]
Okay, for the last time this evening, boys and girls
We're gonna ask you to give us a nice bit of coolness
A very beautiful song, you know very well
It's back to 1960 and one of the forgotten heroes of that period
A young man called Joseph Mary Plunkert
While he was awaiting execution
He married his long time girlfriend
Grace Gifford, a very beautiful song
A song called Grace
[Verse 2]
As we gathered in the chapel here in old Kilmainham Jail
I think about these past few weeks
Oh, will they say we failed?
From our school days they have told us we must yearn for liberty
Yet all I want in this dark place
Is to have you here with me
[Verse 3]
Oh Grace, just hold me in your arms
And let this moment linger
They'll take me out at dawn and I will die
With all my love
I'll place this wedding ring upon your finger
There won't be time to share our love
So we must say goodbye
[Verse 4]
Now I know it's hard for you, my love, to ever understand
The love I bare for these brave men
My love for this dear land
So when Padraic called me to his side down in the GPO
I had to leave my own sick bed
To him, I had to go
[Verse 5]
Oh Grace, just hold me in your arms
And let this moment linger
They'll take me out at dawn and I will die
With all my love
I'll place this wedding ring upon your finger
There won't be time to share our love
So we must say goodbye
[Verse 6]
Now as the dawn is breaking, my heart is breaking too
On this May morn, as I walk out
My thoughts will be with you
And I'll write some words upon the wall so everyone will know
I loved so much that I could see
His blood upon the rose
[Verse 7]
Oh Grace, just hold me in your arms
And let this moment linger
They'll take me out at dawn and I will die
With all my love
I'll place this wedding ring upon your finger
There won't be time to share our love
So we must say goodbye
[Verse 8]
No, there won't be time to share our love
So we must say goodbye
