One lone crow has followed me
Since my journey started
Circling round me, patiently
Almost tender-hearted
Thank you
Good to know you’re here.
Here to reassure me.
Promise, when the end is near
You’ll be waiting for me...
Who knows when this road will end

You’ll be waiting for me...
Who knows when this road will end
Yet it will, for certain.
And you’ll stay my faithful friend
Till the final curtain
You will stay my faithful friend
Till the final curtain
