Why Don't You Stay For Tonight

Intro

Why don't you stay for tonight?
Why don't you rest from the fight?
And wake up fresh at the dawning)

The sky is dark and time is late
The rain is falling heavy
Then on road a horse is heard
A stranger comes riding there
His clothes in rags, he is covered with mud
His eyes are filled with terror

Why don't you stay for tonight?
And sleep until the morning
Why don't you stay for tonight?
Why don't you rest from the fight?
And wake up fresh at the dawning

The tavern filled and tension is high
You hear a nervous talk
When he comes in their motions freeze
The silence crashes all way down
He meet their gaze with empty eyes
He drains his tankard slowly

Why don't you stay for tonight?
Why don't you rest from the fight?
And wake up fresh at the dawning
Solo

He put down the jar and turn his head
No one dares to answer his gaze
He walks across the room and leaves
The murmur rises slowly

Why don't you stay for tonight?
And sleep until the morning
Why don't you stay for tonight?
Why don't you rest from the fight?
And wake up fresh at the dawning
Why don't you stay for tonight?
Why don't you rest from the fight?
And wake up fresh at the dawning
