sir john

The knight came on his glistening steed
Ridden hard through the summer seed
Crossed the land from sea to burning sea
From home to the Sea of Galilee
From where he came without me

You taught the world to hope
Travelled by horse back and by boat
Walked this world pole to pole
Placed light in every dark soul
And now the world sees you as its saviour

And now my nights are darker…
 
Sir John
Where have you gone?
Is this the road that you were on?
Where have you gone?
Sir John Where have you gone?
Is this the path that you were on?
Where have you gone?

You brought peace and divinity
But in my bed you were not here for me
My lord, save the world for all
But don’t expect me, don’t expect me at your fall

How can I compete with your God?
How can I lay down with you, my lord?
When in your heart you know I’ll always be
Forever the temptress
Forever the temptation you see

And now my days grow shorter…

Sir John Where have you gone?
Is this the road that you were on?
Where have you gone?
Sir John Where have you gone?
Is this the path that you were on?
Where have you gone?
