lyrics

Little boy
Parted from his mother
Called to serve
In the springtime of his years
pulled from home
for the honor of another
its his duty
no more time for tears

He hears the songs that tell the legend
of those whose houses led the fight
tales of fallen men in battle
stories of an Autumn Knight
stories of an Autumn Knight

Growing boy
made stronger through his training
serves his lord
in the summer of his years
at his side
tending horse and sword and armor
earns his name
by conquering his fears
He sings the songs that tell the legend
Of those whose houses led the fight
Tales of victory in battle
soon to be an Autumn Knight
Soon to be an Autumn Knight

Full grown man
standing on the hillside
Bears a sword
In the Autumn of his years
sees his men
as they face the threat of battle
mounts his horse
As the time for conflict nears

Now the songs tell of his legend
(How his) honor and his house have led the fight
Embellished tales of strength in battle
For he is now an Autumn Knight
For he is now an Autumn Knight

Lonely grave
dug shallow in the field
rimed with frost
in the Winter of the Year
No mourning cry
or stone to mark his grave
nothing moves
there’s none to shed a tear

No more songs will tell his legend
(how his) honor and his house have led the fight
there’s no scribe to set the story
of the fallen Autumn Knight
Just another Autumn Knight

So listen well the songs of legend
of those whose houses led the fight
take care to heed the note of warning
in stories of the Autumn Knight
in stories of the Autumn Knight
