lyrics

Moonlight on the water, your skin pulling tight. He was so close you could have taken his life. Armour rattling and that matted hair. The miles and years, the heat, the sweat and that broken spear. The sum of it all he cannot understand. The horse makes its own way yet the reins are in his hand. Down the streets of town, nobody pauses to look. At times like these he could be brave as one of those knights in a book. In this wide wide world, moonlight on the water, a warm and gentle stream, and bounded by the dream. Where it all leads he cannot tell. That it leads is all, he comes to that tolling bell. Beware if you should cross him, on your merry way, a desperate man with dragons to slay. Knee deep as the waters gather round, you look out the window and wonder what he's found, that keeps him there like that, scribbling his reams, to see him standing blinded and bounded by the dream. Starlight on the river and your image in his hand. In wide and sleepless nights he dwells, just like the horse he stands. Hey, come over here now, do you have some food to spare, I'm a long way from home, I don't know how I got here. He sits by the fire, his eyes alive with flames, and starts to tell the story, and you're the one he names, the one he's searching for, the one he's trying to lose, the one who left him wandering and bounded by the dream. In this wide wide world, moonlight on the water, a warm and gentle stream, and bounded by the dream.
