[00:10.686]Through the woodland, through the valley
[00:13.211]Comes a horseman wild and free
[00:15.644]Tilting at the windmills passing
[00:18.198]Who can the brave young horseman be?
[00:20.347]
[00:20.610]He is wild but he is mellow
[00:23.099]He is strong but he is weak
[00:25.588]He is cruel but he is gentle
[00:28.091]He is wise but he is meek
[00:30.718]
[00:33.064]Reaching for his saddlebag
[00:35.268]He takes a battered book into his hand
[00:40.526]Standing like a prophet bold
[00:42.644]He shouts across the ocean to the shore
[00:46.602]Till he can shout no more
[00:48.689]
[00:50.510]I have come o'er moor and mountain
[00:53.107]Like the hawk upon the wing
[00:55.446]I was once a shining knight
[00:57.799]Who was the guardian of a king
[01:00.428]
[01:00.494]I have searched the whole world over
[01:03.283]Looking for a place to sleep
[01:05.537]I have seen the strong survive
[01:08.190]And I have seen the lean grown weak
[01:10.342]
[01:15.587]See the children of the earth
[01:17.812]Who wake to find the table bare
[01:20.593]See the gentry in the country
[01:23.033]Riding off to take the air
[01:25.114]
[01:28.096]Reaching for his saddlebag
[01:30.287]He takes a rusty sword into his hand
[01:35.188]Then striking up a knightly pose
[01:37.549]He shouts across the ocean to the shore
[01:41.517]Till he can shout no more
[01:43.597]
[01:45.417]See the jailor with his key
[01:47.669]Who locks away all trace of sin
[01:50.413]See the judge upon the bench
[01:52.536]Who tries the case as best he can
[01:54.938]
[01:55.332]See the wise and wicked ones
[01:57.567]Who feed upon life's sacred fire
[02:00.264]See the soldier with his gun
[02:02.417]Who must be dead to be admired
[02:04.910]
[02:10.357]See the man who tips the needle
[02:12.727]See the man who buys and sells
[02:15.223]See the man who puts the collar
[02:17.702]On the ones who dare not tell
[02:19.936]
[02:20.243]See the drunkard in the tavern
[02:22.747]Stemming gold to make ends meet
[02:25.209]See the youth in ghetto black
[02:27.454]Condemned to life upon the street
[02:29.991]
[02:32.692]Reaching for his saddlebag
[02:34.757]He takes a tarnished cross into his hand
[02:39.711]Then standing like a preacher now
[02:42.052]He shouts across the ocean to the shore
[02:45.699]
[02:47.097]Then in a blaze of tangled hooves
[02:49.552]He gallops off across the dusty plain
[02:53.391]In vain to search again
[02:55.852]Where no one will hear
[02:58.083]
[03:03.866]Through the woodland, through the valley
[03:06.299]Comes a horseman wild and free
[03:08.813]Tilting at the windmills passing
[03:11.406]Who can the brave young horseman be?
[03:13.230]
[03:13.821]He is wild but he is mellow
[03:16.342]He is strong but he is weak
[03:18.821]He is cruel but he is gentle
[03:21.276]He is wise but he is meek
