Conquistador by Procol Harum

Conquistador your stallion standsin need of companyand like some angel's haloed browyou reek of purityI see your armour-plated breasthas long since lost its sheenand in your death mask facethere are no signs which can be seen
And though I hoped for something to findI could see no maze to unwind
Conquistador a vulture sitsupon your silver shieldand in your rusty scabbard nowthe sand has taken seedand though your jewel-encrusted bladehas not been plundered stillthe sea has washed across your faceand taken of its fill
And though I hoped for something to findI could see no maze to unwind
Conquistador there is no timeI must pay my respectand though I came to jeer at youI leave now with regretand as the gloom begins to fallI see there is no, only alland though you came with sword held highyou did not conquer, only die
And though I hoped for something to findI could see no maze to unwind
