  • Far from the worn path of reason
    Further away from the sane
    He battles his shadows and demons
    Fighting to light the way

    And the dust and the dirt cloud his vision
    Onward he rides unafraid
    He fights the good fight for good reason
    A star that refuses to fade

    Still he braves his path
    Windmills only laugh

    She was wounded and wild when he found her
    He saw her through child's eyes
    She fell for the spell he was under
    Each day a brand new surprise

    And she watches with strange curiosity
    She wants so much to believe
    Hoping to break the chains of reality
    Dying to set herself free

    Still he braves his path
    While windmills only laugh

    Though he may appear tattered and broken
    His clothes are shabby and bare
    Still he glows like the flame of a candle
    With passion of one who still cares

    There was always a rhyme to the reason
    Peering out from tired eyes
    The truth finally came in treason
    So wrong, but so justified
    So wrong but so justified
    Windmills close their eyes Writer/s: CANDICE NIGHT, RITCHIE BLACKMORE
