Once was a legend of old
|
In the time of days long ago
|
The clattering beat of a horse on the street
|
He appeared from the fog like a ghost
|
|
I could feel him heading this way
|
A storm was filling the air
|
If the truth be told, when the winds blow cold
|
They are warning you to beware
|
|
No, the wild cannot be tamed
|
Keeper of the flame
|
|
We wondered what devil is this
|
Who appears from out of the mist
|
With a crack of a whip, and a wave of his fist
|
He was cursed and I was bewitched
|
|
Haunted by seeing his face
|
Through the mirror the smoke and the haze
|
So hard to see, through the dark mystery
|
The illusion was part of the game
|
|
Be careful of what you wish for
|
And make sure when it knocks at your door
|
It's what you need, not some fantasy
|
That will haunt you forever more
|
|
Let it be what you need, not some fantasy
|
That will haunt you forever more
|
