➼ Knight

---


He's no prince,
he's no angel, he's no knight.
He comes along,
holding me throughout the night.


The ground's burning.
The strength of mine is getting lost.
With no sword in my hand,
I still have to fight at all costs.


Summer air has never
been this worse,
and I hope it never ever
brought this curse.


I was told to fight,
to forget whatever giving up offers,
but I hold you tight
then I forget that my heart suffers.


All I did was to run,
to throw my courage away
while waiting for
a monster to block my way,


but you held the shield,
keeping destruction away.
You might not believe it,
but you saved more than a day.


You might be no prince,
you might be no angel, you might be no knight,
but--listen--you are
'cause you suddenly lit up my darkest night.
