YOU OWE ME A HEAD TONIGHT (THE GREEN KNIGHT)

[Verse 1] A year and a day have come and gone The seasons turned their wheel The kings are dust, the banners torn But debts are always real I walked through rain, I walked through snow I crossed the forest wide And all this time, Sir Gawain I've kept you in my mind [Chorus] You owe me a head, Sir Gawain You owe me a head tonight Kings may fall and kingdoms vanish But debts survive the fight You light up my days And make the seasons fly I'd really hate to lose you now But a deal's a deal, old guy [Verse 2] Arthur fell and Mordred fell Camelot is gone The mighty songs have all grown faint The world keeps moving on Bedivere still walks the land Percival rides unknown But I have come for one thing only To finally take mine home [Chorus] You owe me a head, Sir Gawain You owe me a head tonight Kings may fall and kingdoms vanish But debts survive the fight You light up my days And make the seasons fly I'd really hate to lose you now But a deal's a deal, old guy [Outro] No anger No revenge No hatred left to find Just one old promise Waiting patiently For a year and a day You owe me a head tonight
