Lyrics The Minstrel's Prayer

All these stupid, silly songs keep trying
to catch your ear
I'm trying desprately
it's just so hard to perevere
and even if you'd listen,
I never had much to say
Cause it's the same old song I've written for the day

Shelter me
oh, genius words
Just give me strength
to pen these things
and give me peace, to will her wings
and oh oh carry on
all you minstrels of the world
we will catch our Lady's ear
we will win for us the girl

and all these minstrels through the ages
that is really all we are
simply singing for the girl
that makes us try so very hard
to crack the perfect limerick
to wield unending woe
to write such silly songs
and the difference never known

Shelter me
oh genius words
just give me stength
to pen these things
and give me peace to will her wings
and oh oh carry on
all you minstrels of the world
we will catch our Lady's ear
we will for us the girl

I'll hold on to the dream
ooh this beggar's plea
an optimistic fantasy
just hold the hand and
drop the kneee
you're facing love you're
embrassing melody

shelter me
oh genius words
just give me strength
to pen these things
and give me peace to will her wings
and oh oh carry on
all you mintrels of the world
we will catch our Lady's ear
we will win for us the girl
