The minstrel sat upon the edge
Of the brightly lighted stage
Every member of the court was there
From the beggar to Arch Mage
They crowded in to hear the fabled
Magic of the man
And whispered as they waited for him
To stand up and strike up the band
Donned in sacred Moses sleeves
And sporting a leprechaun hat
He struck a chord upon his flute
They all stood and thanked him for that
Play on you merry minstrel fly high
He looked upon their haggard faces
Carved with pain and grief
And when he laughed It`s not so bad
They stared at him in disbelief
He knew he was a happier man
Than they ever would be
He took their pain into himself
As he set their spirits free
Donned in sacred Moses sleeves
And sporting a leprechaun hat
He struck a chord upon his flute
They all stood and thanked him for that
Play on you merry minstrel fly high
Fly high fly high
Merry minstrel dance and sing
Living in the lonely world of smiles that you bring
Merry minstrel dance and sing
Living in the lonely world of smiles that you bring
Merry minstrel dance and sing
Living in the lonely world of smiles that you bring
