Woke up this morning
from the
strangest dream
I was in the biggest
army the world
has ever seen
We were marching
as one on the road
to the Holy Grail
Started out seeking
fortune and glory
It's a short song
but it's a
Hell of a story when you
spend your lifetime
trying to get your
hands on the
Holy Grail
But have you heard
about the Great Crusade?
We ran into millions
but nobody got paid
Yeah, we razed four
corners of the globe
for the Holy Grail
All the locals scattered
They were hiding
in the snow
We were so far
from home
So how were
we to know?
There'd be nothing
left to plunder
when we stumbled
on the Holy Grail?
We were
foolish beings
But we were
dying like flies
And those
big black birds
they were circling
in the sky
And you know
what they say, yeah
Nobody deserves
to die...
Oh I
I've been searching
for an easy way
to escape the
cold light of day
I've been high
and I've been low
But I've got
nowhere else to go
There's nowhere
else to go
I followed orders
God knows
where I'd be now
But I woke up alone
all my wounds
were clean
I'm still here
I'm still a fool
for the Holy Grail...
Yeah, I'm a fool
for the Holy Grail...
