Текст песни
I wipe the counter, stained and old
While outside tales of brave unfold
My heart skips beats, a silly thing
To hear the rusty door hinge sing
He's back again, my weary knight
Appearing through the fading light
A fresh new scar upon his cheek
But oh, the victory he'll speak
He strides right in, head held up high
A spark of danger in his eye
He finds his usual wooden chair
And acts as if he has no care
My cheeks are flushed, I pour the drink
Faster than my mind can think
He catches my own flustered gaze
Lost in these happy, hopeful days
Da da dum da
He's standing right across the room
Da da dum da
Chasing shadows, chasing gloom
Da da dum da
With eyes that hold a wilder spark
He lights a fire in the dark
My silly head just spins around
The sweetest joy I've ever found
He tells his tale of goblin Lairs
Of ancient curses, answered prayers
He laughs aloud, a booming sound
The safest man on solid ground
Though yesterday he fought a beast
And barely made it to the feast
He shows the trinket he has won
Beneath the setting, weary sun
A dented helm, a chipped gemstone
Worth less than seeds already sown
But proud he beams, his spirit bright
Ready for another fight
My cheeks are flushed, I pour the drink
Faster than my mind can think
He catches my own flustered gaze
Lost in these happy, hopeful days
Da da dum da
He's standing right across the room
Da da dum da
Chasing shadows, chasing gloom
Da da dum da
With eyes that hold a wilder spark
He lights a fire in the dark
My silly head just spins around
The sweetest joy I've ever found
Sometimes he comes back, bruised and sore
Leaves bloody prints upon the floor
