paroles de chanson The Duel - Chris de Burgh

So Robin Hood lay in his cell and searched his pair, I dare not tell
Gisborne stood there at the door, drinking wine and mocking
You are my prisoner, not my friend, and on this you can depend
I'll take your lands and I will have your Marian
So I'll have another cup of wine, enjoying every moment
Now I've got you where I want you, there is no escape this time
You must think of me as cruel
But for all the times we've had before and now your life is over
I will challenge you to a duel
We will fight 'til the death
And then we'll see who is the best
You always thought that you were better
So pick up a sword and you will get your just reward
My trusted blade will settle this forever, yes forever
Then blades were flashing in the sun, with parry and thrust it had begun
And soon it was Robin's fight for winning
For Gisborne lay there on his back, Robin's sword against his neck
And Robin said, you're not worth killing
Oh, but as he turned to walk away, Gisborne stabbed him from behind
Along the ground, the blood was spilling
Then an arrow let fly, catching Gisborne in the eye
It came from the bow of sweet Marian
And then as he died, she ran to the side of her Robin
Who was mortally wounded, whoa
Whoa-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Mortally wounded in her loving arms, he lay
