*aka Richard Harris
I know what my people are thinking tonight
As home through the shadows I wander
Everyone's smiling in secret delight
They stare at the castle and ponder
Whenever the wind blows this way
You can almost hear everyone say,
"I wonder what Harris is doing tonight?
What merriment is Richard pursuing tonight?
The candles at the court, they look dimmer, not bright,
I wonder what Richard is up to tonight?
How goes his final hour as he sees the will being regally and legally prepared?"
Well, I'll tell you what the Richard is doing tonight
He's happy, he's shared!
You mean that a king who fought a dragon, whacked him in two and fixed his wagon
Goes to be death with courage not distress?
Yes!
A warrior who's so calm in battle even his armor doesn't rattle faces a reaper not petrified with fright?
Right!
You mean that public weeping that sounds like a snorer sleeping is merely the crying of fearful folks?
Zokes!
You wonder what Richard is wishing tonight?
He's wishing he were in Scotland fishing tonight!
What occupies his time while waiting for his ride?
He's searching high and low for his old friends tonight!
And, oh, the expectation, the sublime anticipation he must feel about the places to come!
Well, I'll tell you what the king is feeling tonight
He's happy, he smirks, he sighs, he smiles!
And that's what Richard is doing tonight!
