There comes a horseman He rides in black and gold The road of journey's long And he's only just begun, still he knows. The lady's in waiting Wondering shall the runes come to pass Save her from the dragons breath And light the day at last.
There comes the horseman To storm the castle keep And free the spirit held For those that sow shall reap, no need to weep. The lady shines her heart Her light blinds his eyes, from the path Love's mist falls 'round them The truth will come at last Though he longs to stay He knows he must ride on.
Heavy hoofs thunder His armor and his course strong and true Across the fields of fire The message must get through With death by his side No harbinger returns, but still he rides.
The lady's in waiting as the summer evening glows It echoes through the forest a tale that's never told But still she knows
In the path there stands a specter He carries scythe and dove The whispering wind is calling choose well, the path you walk and follow love.
From the depths of darkness Where shadows never fall There comes the horseman answering the call To save her soul before she falls.

If you can get by the vocal part, there's a nice little solo at the end. Even puts a smile on my face when I hear it.

This is an excellent number, I like the lyrics. and the instrumental build up. The whole piece reminds in style of Stairway, in fact the solo's smack of it. Great number thoroughly enjoyed this one well done

Nice song buildup. The guitars, vocals & mix are all very well balanced & clean. Good lyrics too............ so we all still ride...

Another great tune, Chris. Couldn'r have said it better than Rob. Everything sounds stellar!!!
Christopher's passion and artistry of the acoustic guitar resonates throughout the New Age, Celtic, Rock and World music that he writes and plays. His sense of melody and harmony is more emotion than rhythm or reason and is intertwined with feelings of mystery, joy and longing.
His playing has been described as sensuous, haunting and filled with hope. Just listening to his compositions, you can tell he makes a conscious attempt to touch something inside the listener instead of just trying to surprise them. And though he claims to be just a ’writer of tunes, listen and see that his music is much more.
Thank you for looking at his page and I hope you enjoy the music that he has offered here, as much as he has had in creating it.
