Rick Wakeman - The Last Battle lyrics

Gone are the days of the knights Of the Round Table and fights Gallant men softly crying Brave armies dying The last battle soon to be lost. Hearing of great civil war Saxons to Britain did pour From the North and the East Arthur's knights' d**h to feast The last battle soon to be lost. Come life or d**h Arthur cried Mordred the traitor he spyed Smote him into the ground Where he fell without sound And in rage lunged at Arthur who fell. Sir Hector, Sir Bors, Sir Bladwain and Sir Berboris, the only surviving knights of the round table, ended their days, after a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. Soon after the Saxons conquered all of Britain and the realm of Law was over. Many believed that Arthur would return to re-establish the Holy realm of??? And save Britain in the hour of it's deadliest danger. About the year 1200 the monks of Glastonbury discovered the bones of Arthur buried near to those of Guinevere. Beneath the coffin a stone remained and there across bore the Latin inscription "Here lies King Arthur in his tomb, with Guinevere, his wife, in the Isle of Avalon." Gone are the days of the knights Of the Round Table and fights Of the realm of King Arthur Peace ever after Gone are the days of the knights.
