Their meaning will unfold
These words all that's left
And though weve never meet, my only son
I hope you know
That I would have been there to watch you grow
But my call was heard and I did go
Now your mission lies ahead of you
As it did mine so long ago
To help the helpless ones who all look up to you
And to defend them to the end
Defender
Ride like the wind
Fight proud, my son
Youre the defender
God has sent
Father, father, father
I look up to you and heed thy call
This letter ends my search
Ill live your dream now passed on to me
And I now wait to shake the hand of fate
Like the dusk awaiting dawn
So wizards cast your spell
With no heart to do me well
So it's written, it shall be
Defender
Ride like the wind
Fight proud, my son
Youre the defender
God has sent
When you are old enough to read this words Their meaning will unfold These words all that's left And though weve never meet, my only son I hope you know That I would have been there to watch you grow But my call was heard and I did go Now your mission lies ahead of you As it did mine so long ago To help the helpless ones who all look up to you And to defend them to the end Defender Ride like the wind Fight proud, my son Youre the defender God has sent Father, father, father I look up to you and heed thy call This letter ends my search Ill live your dream now passed on to me And I now wait to shake the hand of fate Like the dusk awaiting dawn So wizards cast your spell With no heart to do me well So it's written, it shall be Defender Ride like the wind Fight proud, my son Youre the defender God has sent Explain Request ×
