The Water Dancer

(album: Winterbane - 2021)

Sit around the fire my old friend
A story I will tell
Just be sure to listen till the end
It's a song you won't forget
Met a girl travelling to north
She had fire in her eyes
Jaded and walking all alone
With a dagger on her side

You should rest, and drink some water, dear
Where are you going?
As the war is raging in my realm
And now I am ready
To go and fight to show what I've become

I have learnt the water dance
I've become a faceless man
Deeper than the sword cuts fear
As I know revenge is near

Take your life and do the best you can
As today we won't be dead
I will fight for my family and clan
Till the steel shines in my hand
I have been away for much too long, my trip is ending
I will save the land where I belong, from evil invaders
As long as the blood in my veins will give me strength

I have learnt the water dance
I've become a faceless man
Deeper than the sword cuts fear
As I know revenge is near

One by one, they'll fall
One less name to hate
To the north I belong
There, where the cold wind blows

I have learnt the water dance
I've become a faceless man
Deeper than the sword cuts fear
As I know revenge is near
