The maiden and the minstrel knight

Song The maiden and the minstrel knight
Artist Blind Guardian
Album A night at the opera

Lyrics

The faithful crowd is gathered here, soon they'll appear
The high and mighty show up, the king is in doubts
Apart from this beggar here, there's no one like you, my dear
Tasting my lips, no one but you and him
'Round the fire, everyone should sing
And praise the gracious queen
'Round the fire, everyone should dance
And we praise the handsome knight
Forever and ever, we both will be one
The maiden, the fair and the young fell in love
Will you still wait for me?
Will you still cry for me?
Come and take my hand
Will you still wait for me?
Will you still cry for me?
Come and take my hand
There's a moment in life when all the years will pass by
And the eyes filled with tears we once shed
We recognize failures, the desperate cries
Of the ones who believed in our lies
Wherever I'll go, you'll be with me
My first though and my last though
We'll depart in bitterness
One day you'll understand
Carry on, beloved maiden, mine
Carry on or we have to pay the price
Will you still wait for me?
Will you still cry for me?
Come and take my hand
Will you still wait for me?
Will you still cry for me?
Come and take my hand
Yesterday's memories and melodies
Are gone with the wind so sad
Snow-white her hands and golden her hair
But she's not the one out in the emptiness
Where everything's pale
There is no sign of you, I'm alone
How I wish you should be here, I'm alone
Telling me it's alright
Come, rest your head
Come, rest your head
Come, rest your head
Come, rest your head
I'm alone and sadness reigns in my heart
As long as we live, it won't go away
We are one but torn apart
Will you still wait for me?
Will you still cry for me?
Come and take my hand
Will you still wait for me?
Will you still cry for me?
Come and take my hand
Proudly it stands
Until the worlds end
The victorious banner of love
