Who He Once Was Lyrics

I read his story from a book I found

A garage with ancient things

There was once a holy man

With a flair for helping kings

I possess a bit of knowledge

Of the time and place it was

This was deeper than I thought

But the mind does what it does

Far away in a distant time

Was a helpless man without a home

He could never be who he once was

Supernatural things did happen

Causing earth to change its course

Before too long the sky had changed

From the power this man had forced

The current king was focused elsewhere

Not seeing what happed there

Though at first he helped the people

But in the end the king lost his heir

He was banished to another realm

And his king was far away

He became a story told

Fairy tales for times of gray
