Goodbye Kentucky rose
May you ever grow in
our hearts
You were the head
that placed itself
Where Rockne got his
start
You called out to our
country
And you whispered to
those in pain
Now you belong to
heaven
And the stars spell
out your name
And it seems to me
you lived your life
Like a candle in the
wind
Never fading with the
season
When the losses set
in
And your footsteps
will always fall here
Along Indiana's
greenest hills
Your candle's burned
out long before
Your legend ever will
Your voice we've lost
These empty seats (at
the top during late season home games) without your smile
This torch we'll
always carry
For our nation's
golden voice
And even though we
try
The truth brings us
to tears
All our words cannot
express
The joy you brought
us through the years
And it seems to me
you lived your life
Like a candle in the
wind
Never fading with the
season
When the losses set
in
And your footsteps
will always fall here
Along Indiana's
greenest hills
Your candle's burned
out long before
Your legend ever will
Goodbye Kentucky rose
May you ever grow in
our hearts
You were the head
that placed itself
Where Rockne got his
start
Goodbye Kentucky rose
From a title lost
without your call
Who'll miss your head
high above
More than you'll ever
know
And it seems to me
you lived your life
Like a candle in the
wind
Never fading with the
sunset
When the losses set
in
And you footsteps
will always fall here
Along Indiana's
greenest hills
Your candle's burned
out long before
Your legend ever will
Good luck to Dan Hiclks.
