[Iron Maiden cover]
As a young boy chasing dragons with your wooden sword so mighty,
You're St. George or you're David and you always killed the Beast.
Times change very quickly,
And you had to grow up early,
A house in smoking ruins and the bodies at your feet.
You'll die as you lived
In a flash of the blade,
In a corner forgotten away.
You lived for the touch
For the feel of the steel
One man, and his honour.
The smell of resined leather
The sticky iron mask
As you cut and thrust and parried at the fencing masters call.
He taught you all he ever knew
To fear no mortal man
And now you'll reach your vengeance on the
Screams of evil men.
You'll die as you lived
In a flash of the blade,
In a corner forgotten away.
You lived for the touch
For the feel of the steel
One man, and his honour.
[Solo]
You'll die as you lived
In a flash of the blade,
In a corner forgotten away.
You lived for the touch
For the feel of the steel
One man, and his honour.
Taken from AlbumSongAndLyrics.comYou'll die as you lived
In a flash of the blade,
In a corner forgotten away.
You lived for the touch
For the feel of the steel
One man, and his honour.
