Tears fall from the jester's eyes No sound as the old man dies Gather round on scared ground The king has gone Trumpets sound from the castle walls There's no sun, a hard rain falls Men where killed and blood was spilled In the days of the knights Hot steel; burning oil Brave men defended their soil Children cried while fathers died The law of the land Rejoice now the battle is won All rise for the king his son Times were rough but the men were tough In the days of knights She's charmed by a magic smell In a place where the spirits dwell The knight will ride and the stars will guide To the princess bride On his quest for the demon land The wizards dies by the hero's hand Evil rules in the eyes of the fools In the days of the knights
