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
Now I know it's true, I'm going to die in May They gave me little time to say goodbye I stood upon the scaffold and kissed my love goodbye The very air was thick with fear, the sound of bullets rent the air I was struck again and fell down bleeding in the street
Grace I know you think of me and what might have been All the dreams we wished for never shared It's sad to say we've lost it all since my conviction came Now the ring I placed upon your finger Tears a burning hole straight through my heart
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
