Seven knights
Light in armor
But heavy in hope
Long's the way
Take my brief
To the harbour
Then back to me
Day after day
The spring sun shone upon us
Smiles and blessings lit the way
Curious I was
Useless to stay
I couldn't keep my thirst at bay
Days grew old
In endless years
The longer the road behind
The more alone my tears
Forward
Towards realms uncharted
Unveil the edge of my world
A fool I was
I should have stayed, but
I couldn't keep my thirst at bay
Decades have passed
I thought it a game
Now everyone at home forgot my name
No fanfare, no feast nor joust
To welcome the prince
The stars now oust
I sent the last
Seven they were
Now I spend my nights alone and bare
What news from home?
Father has gone
Son on the throne
My kingdom come
My only desire
You're nothing, sire
Too late I've known my failure
Still, despite the years
My thirst remains unquenched
Now
I wonder what lies ahead
Quick, ride ahead and announce my arrival
Everybody will know my name
Seven knights light in armor
But heavy in hope once again
Failing is choosing to stop
I'll never do that again, I swear
I will be the new king of this new land
And leave everything else behind
