Steve Walsh Faule Dr Roane
[Verse 1]
Tired warrior, ruined man
Clambers to the shore
The sun he left so long ago
Doesn't shine like it did before
Treaties signed and treaties burned
Will never proffer peace
The great purveyor of rapture's reign
Now prays for the reign to cease
[Verse 2]
Looking down a wounded lane
A thousand years from home
All he's got is memories
The fields of Faule dr Roane
Simple times have given way
And war has claimed his land
And every rock that built his road
Has been washed with the blood of man
[Chorus]
Charlemagne, remember me
Tell me, tell me what you see
Goodbye has left a trace
Of a teardrop on your face
Charlemagne, you know who I am
I surely miss my father's land
So this is where I've gone
To the battle of Faule dr Roane
[Verse 3]
Ashes from the offerings
Imploring for relief
Clouds his eyes and blurs his vision
And fills his heart with grief
He heard the creed, he heard them say
"To war we cannot fail"
He heard the creed, he heard them say
"All other purpose pale"
[Chorus]
Charlemagne, remember me
Tell me, tell me what you see
Goodbye has left a trace
Of a teardrop on your face
Charlemagne, you know who I am
I surely miss my father's land
A king will lose his son
In the battle of Faule dr Roane
[Bridge]
Oh ye, the barbarian tree
Come to me, come to me
For we of the steepening sea
For we sing to thee
For we of the steepening sea
For we sing to thee
From the battle of Faule dr Roane
From the battle of Faule dr Roane
From the battle of Faule dr Roane
From the battle of Faule dr Roane
[Chorus]
Oh, Charlemagne, remember me
Tell me, tell me what you see
Goodbye has left a trace
Of a teardrop on your face
Charlemagne, you know who I am
I surely miss my father's land
But more the loss is mourned
At the battle of Faule dr Roane
