Stand at the edge of the river
Will you help me, wise man,
Red of hair and eyes glowing, I hope
Help me to deliver
My demands for the chalice of life from the wicked king's home
Stand at the gates of your castle
Send me my quarry or send me your champions to claim
Hours of battle
Against all your finance will not dull my speartips this day
My love, my love
I will wash away your tears with my blood
My heart, my heart
I will restore your life to the start
My love, my love
I will wash away your tears with my blood
My heart, my heart
I will restore your life to the start
Stand back again at the river
The red one, he told me that our love would not be the same
Once I deliver
That which I sought
And that which I still do attain
What do I care of his warnings?
Though you lay dying for my faults
You still call my name
Hearts may lose yearning
I'd trade it all just to see you again one more day
My love, my love
I will wash away your tears with my blood
My heart, my heart
I will restore your life to the start
My love, my love
I will wash away your tears with my blood
My heart, my heart
I will restore your life to the start
My love, my love
I will wash away your tears with my blood
My heart, my heart
I will restore your life to the start
My love, my love
I will wash away your tears with my blood
My heart, my heart
I will restore your life to the start
My love, my love
I will wash away your tears with my life
My heart, my heart
I will restore your life to the start
