Blind Guardian
The Bard’s Song (In the Forest) (Demo)
[Verse 1]
Leave me alone
Down at my own
No-one will know
The bard but his song

No-one had seen
And no-one knows why
Leave me alone in the shadows of time
Leave, my brother

[Chorus 1]
Lord why they take it away?
Far from the crowds
"Back to the ground" the Earth would say
And the wind will call his name

Lord why they take it away?
Far from the crowds
"So far away"
All the children cry

[Verse 2]
There's only one song
Left when he died
Tales are behind what
Lived far from here
The bard's song's now finished
Burning in mine
No-one had answered
"The answer is time"
The story-teller

[Chorus 2]
Lord why they take it away?
Far from the crowds
"Back to the ground" the Earth would say
And the wind will tell his tale

Lord why they take it away?
Far from the crowds
"Back to the ground" the Earth would say
And the wind will call his name

[Outro]
I'm left in middle of the lot
By the golden ring
The roots are written down and in
It's sad but true
Now it's gone away
