John Edmond - Keep the Flame Lily Burning lyrics

Artist: John Edmond

album: All Time Rhodesian Evergreens


It's been such a good get-together!
We hoisted the old Green and White.
We lived in the past and had a few laughs
With chibullies right into the night.
We toasted our friends that were absent
And wondered where some of them are,
But one thing that we know for certain,
The old days will live on in their hearts.
So keep the flame lily burning;
Burning deep in your heart.
Keep the flame lily burning
Though it's time we must part.
The wheel of friendship keeps turning around
And I know that we'll meet again,
So keep the flame lily burning
Deep in your heart until then.
Paddy has gone off to Ireland
And Taffy's in Cardiff they say
And Jock's come to rest in old Inverness
And Chuck's in the U.S. of A.
And Bruce has gone off to Australia
And Dino is living in Rome
But Ian from Matusadona
Went nowhere and just stayed at home.
So keep the flame lily burning;
Burning deep in your heart.
Keep the flame lily burning
Though it's time we must part.
The wheel of friendship keeps turning around
And I know that we'll meet again,
So keep the flame lily burning
Deep in your heart until then.
And now as the lights go down
And a tear fills the eye
The drifters drift and the stayers stay,
It's so long but never goodbye.
So keep the flame lily burning;
Burning deep in your heart.
Keep the flame lily burning
Though it's time we must part.
The wheel of friendship keeps turning around
And I know that we'll meet again,
So keep the flame lily burning
Deep in your heart until then.
