Let Joy And Innocence Prevail
4
Performed by Grace Jones

Written by Hans Zimmer/Trevor Horn
6
I tell you of a girl her husband was a soldier
7
gone to war in some strange country far away
8
no word had come to her
9
but the rumour of great battles fought
10
and dying in their thousands and the world full of fear
11
as the day would turn to evening she would a pure white candle
12
and place it in a window bright from where it could be seen
13
as she placed it in the window softly ? and ?
14
she said let this burning candle be a beacon
15
let joy and innocence prevail
16
let joy and innocence prevail
17
believe that luck will never fail
18
let joy and innocence prevail
19
and one night, asleep, she dreamed she saw her husband
20
fall in a great white cavilry charge
21
and waking in tears she saw the candle burning in the window
22
she still had hope
23
and through the window a man in the distance
24
but has he came closer, she saw he was a stranger
25
the stranger said I bring a message from a general
26
your captain has been wounded, his life hangs by a thread
27
he calls out your name and he wishes you to come to him
28
but the journey is a hard road and you may be afraid
29
and she laughed and said no road could be too hard for I am fearless
30
a captain and a husband I have gained this bright new day
31
and she said with all her heart she would fly to be beside hik
32
and her love would heal his wounds restore him to her
33
let joy and innocence prevail
34
let joy and innocence prevail
35
believe that luck will never fail
36
let joy and innocence prevail
37
let joy and innocence prevail
38
let joy and innocence prevail
39
believe that luck will never fail
40
let joy and innocence prevail
41
let joy and innocence prevail
