Captain, oh our Captain.

We knew you not before

Yet twice you answered England’s call

In peace and times of war.

Proudly you stood

To face the foes

With each step forward,

Heels to toes.

Around his garden, a Yorkshireman,

On a walking mission to raise a grand,

Captured all our hearts, brought

Hope sweeping across the land.

Tomorrow will be a good day,

But this eve we weep, we cry

For our hero has now left and

A centurion stands guard on high.

Thank you for entering our lives

We’re glad we knew you before

You had to leave, so farewell, with much love,

Our Captain, Sir Tom Moore.
