the poet & the bard - the cathedral lyrics

Loading...

[verse]
i left my drunken stupor to think on my own
about my poor mother and father suffered too
he sent a man to tell me how my life came to be
a story of misfortune with pain and misery

[verse]
aristocratic lovers from rival families
the king could not condone this love, this love that could have been
the prince who was my father faced a painful destiny
for all he ever wanted was the woman of his dreams

but his dream soon turned to nightmare
for the king decided to end this love affair

[chorus]
it was love that kept them going but it was love that tore them apart (apart)
they wanted so to be together, yet it was his father who took her away + from him (away from him)
an affair that lasted long enough to birth me, a b+st+rd child
from then i was endangered, and brought to foreign lands

[verse]
while war broke out at home ‘tween the sovereign and his rightful heir
the king committed cruelty no child should ever see
he sent mercenaries to take my mother’s head
[bridge}
one year later he took his own last breath
his demise led my father to lay hands on a golden crown
and build two tombs decorated in stories and angels

[chorus]
years later i was told of this cathedral so grand
where my parents lay buried
time for me to see them rested
to learn about my family’s past
a journey i must take
