lyrics

Should be standing by you hand in hand
Not abandoned, stranded on the sand
Should embrace the holy water's grace
Not the sting of brine across my face

Should have been on time
Should have honoured you and kept my promise
Shouldn't have to nearly die -
Wrecked at sea - to see just what you're worth

But if I face you at the altar stone
I sacrifice the life I used to know
I surrender my side of the war
Execute the man I was before

So I play for time
Teetering upon the brink of never
Taking every chance I find
There's a lot to keep me occupied

Like the time I had to fight Mandricard
He had on the same tabard as me, you see
I could not let it be
Or when I wrestled with the giant
He left me pretty tired
My horse got stolen on the way back home

Or do you remember when your cousins
Got into a spot of bother with that man
He was a dark enchanter
Or the time I helped your twin
Joining him on a mission
Of disguise in male and female garb

Always time for just another quest
Stealing time from those I love the best
Never miss a chance to vacillate
Is it any wonder that I'm late?

Now I pay the price
Now I pit myself against your patience
Will you save me one last time?
All that I can do is sit and wait...
