And tossing petals to a pool
 So keep your mind off passing hours
 'Cause I'll be coming for you soon

 Make believe you are a dancer
 Though perhaps you make a better queen
 And before you leave better count roses
 And a mad, mad way you want to scream
 If you want, he gives you slippers
 Shoot an arrow on past the sun
 Or be the keeper always of my mind and heart
 Or is it best you go unseen

 Once you were star-struck and now twice you're not
 And things go badly as they do
 All the rainbows out of heaven
 I'll only steal them when I can

 And me I'm just your soldier
 An heirloom to a basket queen
 And all the blisters in our fevered
 And only silence killed my dreams
 If you want he'll give you slippers
 Shoot an arrow on past the sun
 Or be the keeper always of my mind and heart
 You think you got control, you don't,
 You'll never know, you'll never know

 You'll be the keeper of the Holy Grail
 You sieze it quick, you dare not fail
 You're the only survivor of your holy quest
 Or is it best you go unseen
