In London town, the year was eighteen-nineteen
A boy with dreams, just twelve, so bright and keen
He walked the halls where justice wore its crown
But fate had plans to turn his world around
Oh Daniel Heath, your heart was true and wide
But love and lies would pull you like the tide
From wedding bells to prison’s iron gate
You danced with joy, you wept with twists of fate
He loved too much, and gave more than he should
Two vows he made, both meant for greater good
But secrets bloom where honesty should grow
And shadows found him where the truth won’t go
Oh Daniel Heath, your soul was torn in two
One love was real, the other never knew
You paid the price for kindness wrapped in pain
But still you rose, and found your heart again
Through alley smoke and courtroom cries
He searched for truth beneath the lies
A woman’s wrath, a friend’s embrace
Each left a mark he could not erase
Oh Daniel Heath, your tale is carved in stone
A man who walked through fire all alone
But love endured, and justice found its way
Your name lives on in every song we play
