Chorus: Down the road and to the left
It's never been any further
To find the thing that you never lost
Who serves the grail
Are you the one that's common born
are you a fool in many ways
have you searched half of your life
Looking for some holy grail
And did you see it in a dream
a vision once when you were young
Does a circle lead you back
to the place where you begun
[chorus]
Are you the one he left behind
or was it you to finally leave
and the one that always wore
your heart for anyone to see
and brow to brow and side to side
palm to palm and toe to toe
did you really have no idea
how far and deep an echo goes?
[chorus]
Are you the pilgrim on the road
Are you the hermit in the wood
Have you followed what you know
What you want or what you should?
And have you learned a thing or two
Have you wondered at the time
in the dark night of the soul
am I the one you thought you'd find?
[chorus]
Grace and laughter ever after
sorrow folds her hands together
was it all and did you mean it
in the dark you've always seen
a bright and shining true idea
I am the wound that will not heal
I am the song you cannot sing
I am an endless restless ache
I am, I am the fisher king
All that I can ask of you
is do what small good that you can
speak the words I long to hear
then come meet me where I am
