Carrie Newcomer - The Fisher King lyrics

Chorus: Down the road and to the left It's never been any further To find the thing that you never lost Who serves the grail Are you the one that's common born are you a fool in many ways have you searched half of your life Looking for some holy grail And did you see it in a dream a vision once when you were young Does a circle lead you back to the place where you begun [chorus] Are you the one he left behind or was it you to finally leave and the one that always wore your heart for anyone to see and brow to brow and side to side palm to palm and toe to toe did you really have no idea how far and deep an echo goes? [chorus] Are you the pilgrim on the road Are you the hermit in the wood Have you followed what you know What you want or what you should? And have you learned a thing or two Have you wondered at the time in the dark night of the soul am I the one you thought you'd find? [chorus] Grace and laughter ever after sorrow folds her hands together was it all and did you mean it in the dark you've always seen a bright and shining true idea I am the wound that will not heal I am the song you cannot sing I am an endless restless ache I am, I am the fisher king All that I can ask of you is do what small good that you can speak the words I long to hear then come meet me where I am
