ROBERT SOETERBOEK:
|
Ready for the enemy
|
Hungry for the battle
|
Fighting hard for victory
|
In the army of the king
|
|
Armed with shield and sword
|
We mounted our horses
|
Leaving on a sacred quest
|
On our way to fight the holy war
|
|
They attacked from different sides
|
Hard pressed with numbers
|
We could not even run nor hide
|
We had to stand and fight
|
Then I felt a blade of steel
|
Penetrate my armour
|
I did not dream the pain was real
|
As I went down I knew my time had come...
|
|
EDWARD REEKERS:
|
And then he rode into the night
|
Towards that eerie distant light that seemed to charm him
|
|
EDWARD REEKERS: Until he came to a road that disappeared
|
OKKIE HUYSDENS: Beyond the last horizon
|
|
EDWARD REEKERS:
|
He knew there'd be no way back
|
Once he had vanished in the blackness of infinity
|
|
EDWARD REEKERS: And so he gathered all his strength not to descend
|
OKKIE HUYSDENS: Into the valley of death...
|
ROBERT SOETERBOEK: Into the valley of death...
|
|
ROBERT SOETERBOEK:
|
I opened up my weary eyes
|
The haze slowly lifted
|
The mighty roar of battlecries
|
Stopped ringing in my ears
|
|
I gazed upon a friendly face
|
He carried me to safety
|
I told him of this frightening place
|
And of my journey back from the other side
|
|
EDWARD REEKERS:
|
And then he rode into the night
|
Towards that eerie distant light that seemed to charm him
|
|
EDWARD REEKERS: Until he came to a road that disappeared
|
OKKIE HUYSDENS: Beyond the last horizon
|
|
EDWARD REEKERS:

He knew there'd be no way back
|
Once he had vanished in the blackness of infinity
|

EDWARD REEKERS:

And then he rode into the night
|
Towards that eerie distant light that seemed to charm him
|
|
ROBERT SOETERBOEK:
|
A force so seductive
|
And yet so destructive and cruel
|
|
EDWARD REEKERS: Until he came to a road that disappeared
|
OKKIE HUYSDENS: Beyond the last horizon
|
|
ROBERT SOETERBOEK:
|
I followed that road to the edge of eternity
|
|
EDWARD REEKERS:
|
He knew there'd be no way back
|
Once he had vanished in the blackness of infinity
|
|
ROBERT SOETERBOEK:
|
I fought for my life
|
For I had to survive the ordeal
|
|
EDWARD REEKERS: And so he gathered all his strength not to descend
|
OKKIE HUYSDENS: Into the valley of death...
|
ROBERT SOETERBOEK: Into the valley of death...
