The Knight's Oath - No 008
“THE KNIGHT’S OATH” (Love Letter 008) [Intro] Long ago… I dreamt this dream for you… Beneath a willow tree… I waited… Until nightfall… [Verse 1] Woke from a dream in a world unseen, Under that tree where the air was clean, Still as the night, yeah the sky turned grey, I waited there… I waited all day... Hours passed as the dark sky grew, Shadows moved as the cold wind blew,, But deep in my chest there was something true Like all of this… was meant for you Then footsteps thundered through hollow ground, A force unseen - I could feel it now, I turned… and there He stood, crowned The King Himself… “Kneel now… take your vow.” [Verse 2 - The King] “Peasant… rise - your time has come, A call to duty - you cannot run, My daughter suffers… lost in pain, And none have reached her heart again They love themselves… they fail her soul, They cannot make a broken whole, So now I give this choice to you To carry light… to see it through Be her hope… be her faith, Stand beside her… keep her safe, Show her love that does not bend, A truth that lives beyond the end So kneel before me… take this blade, Be reborn… be unafraid, Swear in blood - be ever true, A valiant knight… I choose you” [Hook] I take the oath… I hold the flame… I stand in truth… I guard her name… Through every dark… through every pain… My love for her… will still remain… [Verse 3 - Knight’s Oath] So I drop to one knee, head bowed down tight, “I swear to You… I’ll live this right, By the code of faith… by the sword I raise, I’ll protect her heart through all my days I’ll be her shelter when storms appear, Be her strength when she feels fear, Never let her feel alone Never let her stand on her own Let her never doubt what I bring is real, Not a fleeting touch - but a love she can feel, From this day forth till my last breath taken My love for her… is everlasting” [Hook] I take the oath… I hold the flame… I stand in truth… I guard her name… Through every dark… through every pain… My love for her… will still remain… [Verse 4 - The Warning] But the King steps close… His voice turns cold, “A vow like this… is not for show, If you should fail… or lose your way… There will be no feast… no light… no day Do not doubt… do not break, Do not let your spirit shake, For if you fall to fear or lie Then everything you are… will die And hear me now… this truth I speak The strong can fall… the proud grow weak, If love is lost… if faith is ceased… The man you are… becomes the beast…” [Bridge] A sacred oath… A tested soul… Love… or darkness… Takes control… [Final Hook] I took the oath… I hold the flame… I gave my soul… I guard her name… No matter what… no matter cost… I won’t become… what darkness wants… [Outro] And from that night… Beneath that tree… A choice was made… Not just by me… A flame was bound… Two souls… one key… A knight was born… Because she would one day… Choose me…
