The Paladin's Lament

[Verse] Once was a paladin brave and strong Led his party all day long They quested far battered down the road But fate had other plans oh so bold [Verse 2] The rogue he fell to a chest so dear Opened it wide disappeared with a cheer A mimic it was sly and keen Gobbling up the rogue unseen [Chorus] Lost them one by one it's true Friends and comrades bid adieu The paladin stands but tears do fall For he lost them all he lost them all [Verse 3] The wizard next with spells so grand Met a golem made of stone and sand Magic flashed but to no avail Trapped in rock their face grew pale [Verse 4] The cleric went to a demon's call In a darkened cave down a winding hall With holy light and sacred rite But the demon won by morning light [Chorus] Lost them one by one it's true Friends and comrades bid adieu The paladin stands but tears do fall For he lost them all he lost them all
