Return Of The King



The king returns
Crusades are won
Dragons slain
Back number one

With one eye open
Expecting more 
Not trusting peace
Expecting war

Too, too much
This little plot
On which we planned
On which we fought.

Rebuild, repair
Resolve prepare
Reclaim, retake
Redeem mistake

Remember the dead
The life and lives
The blood that was shed
The twisting knives

Digging out and digging in
I stand erect
Begin again

For all my wandering
Scars and prizes
No more wondering
No more crisis

It's not a homecoming
No fanfare please
There is no triumph
No laurel leaves

Time to live
Time to breathe
Time to love
Time to believe.
