Captured King

Lyrics & Music: Richard E. Toy

The morning light shines through
The rays fall on my face
The hours of darkness have gone
I wake up in this place
A wooden bowl lies empty
No food for this knight
Alone I sit in this cold cell
Loser of the fight

Set me free from this place
Set me free & hide my disgrace

A victory is won & I have lost
But you must pay yes you must pay the cost
Like an arrow from a longbow the lion must go free
Like the fish in the water I must sail the sea

Set me free from this place
Set me free & hide my disgrace
Set me free ransom you'll bring
Set me free 'cause I'm your king

The moonlight shines through
Shadows dance on my face
The hours of darkness are here
Another night in this place
The wooden bowl still empty
No food for this knight
Alone I sit in this cold cell
But I will survive
