Blackmore’s Night
Windmills
[Verse 1]
Far from the worn path of reason
Further away from the sane
He battles his shadows and demons
Fighting to light the way

[Verse 2]
And the dust and the dirt cloud his vision
Onward he rides unafraid
He fights the good fight for good reason
A star that refuses to fade

[Chorus]
Still he braves his path
While windmills only laugh

[Verse 3]
She was wounded and wild when he found her
He saw her through child's eyes
She fell for the spell he was under
Each day a brand new surprise

[Verse 4]
And she watches with strange curiosity
She wants so much to believe
Trying to break the chains of reality
Dying to set herself free
[Chorus]
Still he braves his path
While windmills only laugh

[Verse 5]
Though he may appear tattered and broken
His clothes are shabby and bare
Still he glows like the light from a candle
With passion of one who still cares

[Verse 6]
There was always a rhyme to the reason
Peering out from tired eyes
The truth finally came in treason
So wrong, but so justified

[Outro]
So wrong, but so justified
Windmills close their eyes
