A love that's shining
through the ages
and I love you, England
I know I always will

To close to ignore
to far away to see

Tears of tenderness
keep making love to
the ever present past
whispering its legacy

And I love you, England
where I meet

Friends more loyal 
than brothers

Friends just as loyal
as marriage mates

Beautiful eyes finding
a peaceful place in
the lonely sky

So long, England
- we'll keep in touch

I love you, England
when I can tell our  mutual legacy

is holding my hand.

I love you, yeah yeah
now and for ever

I love you, England
now and forever
