Story behind the song
I'm an incurable romantic - my quest to serve the woman of dreams, I think she might be a vampiress hiding out in commoner's (since she lives a long long time) to avoid detection.
Lyrics
Shield and Bow
Pardon dear maiden please look my way
Your Gypsy eyes and captivating gaze
Cuts thru’ the skull right into the soul
And I’m hoping you have the power to hold (x2)
My heart in yours and all my will
At your beckon call till time stands still
Let me serve you till the rivers don’t flow
Your guardian knight with shield and bow.
As the moon climbs high and your spirits’ free
Beware refusals to set you free
He’s scarred your heart, poisoned your veins
He’s dragged you through hell and he’ll do it again (x2)
Let me conquer your foes and take the hill
I would fight for you till time stands still
Let me serve you till the rivers don’t flow
Your guardian knight with shield and bow.
Old and frail on my death bed
Tears in your eyes as you cradle my head
The spirits carry me to the underworld
But my heart stays bound to that gypsy girl (x2)
I conquered your foes, I captured the hill
Gave my life for you and now time stands still
I served you till the rivers don’t flow
I was your guardian knight with shield and bow.
I was your guardian knight with shield and bow.
