Merlin

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

Beneath the hills of ancient stone

I waited long and waited lone

The stars above me knew my name

Before the fire before the flame

[Pre-Chorus]

And when the waters rose

And when the towers fell

I held the secret close

And never broke the spell

[Chorus]

Merlin I am

Merlin I stay

The hand that guides the king

The voice that leads the way

Merlin I am

Merlin I remain

I carry every prophecy

And every drop of rain

[Post-Chorus]

Rise rise rise

(Bring him to the throne)

Rise rise rise

(He will not walk alone)

[Verse 2]

A boy who pulled a blade from stone

Was born to rule and not to roam

I taught him how to hold his crown

To stand his ground and not bow down

[Pre-Chorus]

The ravens circle slow

The battles come and go

I keep the kingdom whole

Though none will ever know

[Chorus]

Merlin I am

Merlin I stay

The hand that guides the king

The voice that leads the way

Merlin I am

Merlin I remain

I carry every prophecy

And every drop of rain

[Bridge]

Let the forests burn

Let the seasons turn

I will hold the thread

Until the very end

Let the ages run

I am not yet done

[Chorus]

Merlin I am

Merlin I stay

The hand that guides the king

The voice that leads the way

Merlin I am

Merlin I remain

I carry every prophecy

And every drop of rain

[Post-Chorus]

Rise rise rise

(Bring him to the throne)

Rise rise rise

(He will not walk alone)
