I hid in the shadows for a millennium And yet I always stood by your side For centuries I was almost forgotten In veils of obscurity forced to hide ♪ You know who I am I am the pagan man ♪ You have seen glimpses of my face But looked past my familiar sight You have heard shards of my song But failed to comprehend its might ♪ You know who I am I am the pagan man You know who I am I am the pagan man ♪ Out of the mists of oblivion I ride Who I am you shall know once more I will take you back to who you were In the sacred glorious days of yore ♪ You know who I am I am the pagan man You know who I am I am you
