lyrics

What to do
with a ruthless king?
Just give him your crown,
turn him round
but what will he say?
if you give him all
Behold, this pale horse
Given by the prince
Saddle the riches they share
Those who watch his grail turn away
and make my grains into gold
make their grains and
turn me around
turn me around

What to do [to do?]
with a ruthless king?
A ruthless king...you give them all

I looked at him,
and I was nearly faint
Watch him stand, near the king
Turn my golds into sand
You battered son
You'll give me more

He cannot hear
for the witches spell
It's made him a fool before
I can tell
Silently, in his discreet majesty
Looking through the thunder again
Looking towards me, yes he said

Those who wander
may stand before him
Those watch over
may they stand before me
But what do I see?
A young smiling face
Once like mine, I can tell.
