Blackmore's Night - The Peasant's Promise Lyrics
Artist: Blackmore's Night
Album: Miscellaneous
Genre: Rock
- Songwriters: Ritchie Blackmore, Candice Night
One warm summer night, he rode into sight
On a wild mare that was so perfectly white
I'd dreamed he'd return and I was right
Wishes can come true when you wish with all your might
One look in his eyes, I had realized
His life was so simple, he had no disguise
He lived day to day, no promise he would stay
But in these few words he stole my heart away
He said, "My life's not to lead through power or greed
I am but a poor man when I'm cut I bleed
A more humble man you never will meet
And here is my heart for only you to keep"
In the shade of the willow tree
My poor peasant promised to me
No scholarly thoughts, he couldn't pay high costs
And sometimes it feels like he's totally lost
But he said this true and he said it loud
I promise you my heart with this solemn vow
One warm summer night, he rode into sight
On a wild mare that was so perfectly white
I'd dreamed he'd return and I was right
Wishes can come true when you wish with all your might
In the shade of the willow tree
My poor peasant promised to me
In the Know
