The Forgotten King

In the shadow of the mountains
The winds still carry his name
We keep the fire burning bright
But the world around us hasn't changed

The king left with silent grace to find
His lost queen beyond the sea
He left us with a vow unbroken
That one day we’ll be free

Our children ask us about his face
We speak in whispers, soft as lace
We feed them dreams we barely feel
And pray one day this pain will heal

He left for love, they say with grace
But love has never touched this place
And now the years have shown the bitter cost

Will he be there for me?
The silence screams from within
To hear you in my dreams
I'll hail the forgotten king

Will he be there for me?
There are no stars to guide my feet
The cold wind sings of grief
I'll hail the forgotten king

Will he be there for me?
I gave him all I could be
My death will bring me peace
