Lyrics: Stephen Love
Music: Stephen Love
Played by the New Riders of the Purple sage in the late 1970s.
How will I die, is it sin
Before the morning light
How will I love you, my lady
I have ridden before you in the night
So hold me close beside you
I see your eyes have grown still
They tell me a tale
Of knights and queens
No longer still
When will the hour come upon me
Quietly I wait for your words
To tell me it's now, tell me the time is upon upon me
My quest is over now
So be my only love
Catch me before I fall
Well, an hour or two
Won't make it right
Remember me as well
