Songtext: "Lady of the Lake"

(Zur Melodie von "Minstrel of the Dawn")

Who gave Merlin the magic sword
To put into the stone?
It was the Lady of the Lake
Who lived in the lake alone
Who gave Merlin the magic sword
To put into the stone

To Arthur, Merlin showed the sword
To take it out the stone
The sword the lady gave to him
Who lived in the lake alone
She gave Merlin the magic sword
To put into the stone

Then Arthur took the magic sword
He took it out the stone
To England, Arthur became king
He went upon the throne
All by the magic of the sword
Made in the lake alone

Oh, but the Lady of the Lake
Was lonesome and alone
For no one came to visit her
Where she sat on her wet throne
Blue felt the Lady of the Lake
Who lived in the lake alone

With one man she did fall in love
Who came to the lake alone
The one to whom she gave the sword
She wanted on her wet throne
The lonesome Lady of the Lake
Didn't like to be alone

But Merlin had no time for love
That was how to her he spoke
The Lady made a magic spell
To make Merlin a proud oak
A tree a-growing by the lake
That's how all the stories spoke

Now he is watching by the banks
Where she sits on her wet throne
To guard the Lady of the Lake
And never leave her alone
That's why the Lady of the Lake
Is never more left alone
