Don Quixote - Gordon Lightfoot[00:00:01]
Through the woodland through the valley[00:00:10]
Comes a horseman wild and free[00:00:12]
Tilting at the windmills passing[00:00:15]
Who can the brave young horseman be[00:00:17]
He is wild but he is mellow[00:00:20]
He is strong but he is weak[00:00:22]
He is cruel but he is gentle[00:00:25]
He is wise but he is meek[00:00:27]
Reaching for his saddlebag[00:00:33]
He takes a battered book into his hand[00:00:35]
Standing like a prophet bold[00:00:40]
He shouts across the ocean to the shore[00:00:42]
Till he can shout no more[00:00:46]
I have come o'er moor and mountain[00:00:50]
Like the hawk upon the wing[00:00:52]
I was once a shining knight[00:00:55]
Who was the guardian of a king[00:00:57]
I have searched the whole world over[00:01:00]
Looking for a place to sleep[00:01:02]
I have seen the strong survive[00:01:05]
And I have seen the lean grown weak[00:01:07]
See the children of the earth[00:01:15]
Who wake to find the table bare[00:01:17]
See the gentry in the country[00:01:20]
Riding off to take the air[00:01:22]
Reaching for his saddlebag[00:01:27]
He takes a rusty sword into his hand[00:01:30]
Then striking up a knightly pose[00:01:34]
He shouts across the ocean to the shore[00:01:37]
Till he can shout no more[00:01:41]
See the jailor with his key[00:01:45]
Who locks away all trace of sin[00:01:47]
See the judge upon the bench[00:01:50]
Who tries the case as best he can[00:01:52]
See the wise and wicked ones[00:01:54]
Who feed upon life's sacred fire[00:01:57]
See the soldier with his gun[00:01:59]
Who must be dead to be admired[00:02:02]
See the man who tips the needle[00:02:09]
See the man who buys and sells[00:02:12]
See the man who puts the collar[00:02:14]
On the ones who dare not tell[00:02:17]
See the drunkard in the tavern[00:02:19]
Stemming gold to make ends meet[00:02:22]
See the youth in ghetto black[00:02:24]
Condemned to life upon the street[00:02:27]
Reaching for his saddlebag[00:02:32]
He takes a tarnished cross into his hand[00:02:34]
Then standing like a preacher now[00:02:39]
He shouts across the ocean to the shore[00:02:42]
Then in a blaze of tangled hooves[00:02:46]
He gallops off across the dusty plain[00:02:49]
In vain to search again[00:02:53]
Where no one will hear[00:02:55]
Through the woodland through the valley[00:03:03]
Comes a horseman wild and free[00:03:05]
Tilting at the windmills passing[00:03:08]
Who can the brave young horseman be[00:03:11]
He is wild but he is mellow[00:03:13]
He is strong but he is weak[00:03:15]
He is cruel but he is gentle[00:03:18]
He is wise but he is week[00:03:20]
