Story behind the song
Love and sacrificing one's life to that special someone.
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.
