A LONELY KNIGHT
lyrics: J. Morse © 1983
Battle's begun, the foe awaits the sword
Brave enough to face you, he knows he has no chance
Pipers practice their mourning tune
As you mount your faithful steed
But everyone's aware that a victory isn't what you need
Lonely Knight, where will you go
When the battle's finally won?
You'll go home alone to an empty, barren room
And there you'll contemplate your fate
Are you gonna be a Lonely Knight forever
Or will you finally get your wish?
Will you remain a Lonely Knight forever?
The feast has now begun, you sit aside your king, but alone
No one speaks a word about your problem, it's ignored
The pipers play a romantic tune
And the ladies take their dance
But the only victory for you today was by the lance
Lonely Knight, what will you do
When battle becomes too much for you
You'll go home alone to a cold and empty place
No sunshine to surround you and warm your heart
Are you gonna be a Lonely Knight forever
Or will you get the one you want?
Will you remain a Lonely Knight forever?
Battle's begun, the foe awaits the sword
Brave enough to face you, he knows he has no chance
Pipers practice their mourning tune
As you mount your faithful steed
But everyone's aware that a victory isn't what you need
Lonely Knight, where will you go
When the battle's finally won?
You'll go home alone to an empty, barren room
And there you'll contemplate your fate
Are you gonna be a Lonely Knight forever
Or will you finally get your wish?
Will you remain a Lonely Knight forever?
