[Intro]
[Verse]
As we gather in the chapel here in old Kilmainham Jail
I think about these past few weeks, oh will they say we ve 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
[Chorus]
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 place this wedding ring upon your finger
There won t be time to share our love for we must say goodbye
[Verse]
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
But when Pádraic called me to his side down in the GPO
I had to leave my own sick bed, to him I had to go
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
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 place this wedding ring upon your finger
There won t be time to share our love for we must say goodbye
[Verse]
Now as the dawn is breaking, my heart is breaking too
On this May morn as I walk out, my thoughts will be of 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
[Chorus]
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 place this wedding ring upon your finger
There won t be time to share our love for we must say goodbye
