To gain the king’s glory They’ll fabricate stories and lie They’ve offered me reasons But murder and treason, not I Must ride like the wind Treachery Will be the death of us all I must find my master Before this disaster arrives We surely are done for And now we must run for our lives Must ride like the wind Treachery Will be the death of us all I must keep on riding There’s no use in hiding my tracks If you lead a good life You’ll end up with a knife in your back Must ride like the wind Treachery Will be the death of us all Ride like the wind

So many times I’ve stood and wondered Is this madness, what’s happening to me My many dreams of grim illusion Confusion, the visions I’ve seen Now I’m standing here I’m waiting for the winds of time to change First there was light Now darkness remains to claim the day So many times I gave my warning Your scorning, was all I received So many times I tried to tell you My message, why can’t you see? Now I’m standing here I’m waiting for the winds of time to change First there was light Now darkness remains to claim the day Oh winds of change Oh beware the winds of change Now I’m standing here I’m waiting for the winds of time to change First there was light Now darkness remains to claim the day Now I’m standing here Waiting for the winds of time to change
