Conquistador (Stereo) Lyrics

Conquistador your stallion stands in need of company
and like some angel's haloed brow you reek of purity
I see your armour-plated breast has long since lost its sheen
and in your death mask face there are no signs which can be seen
And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no place to unwind

Conquistador a vulture sits upon your silver shield
and in your rusty scabbard now the sand has taken seed
and though your jewel-encrusted blade has not been plundered still
the sea has washed across your face and taken of its fill
And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no place to unwind
I could see no place to unwind

Conquistador there is no time I must pay my respects
and though I came to jeer at you I leave now with regrets
and as the gloom begins to fall I see there is no only all
and though you came with sword held high you did not conquer, only die ...
And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no place to unwind
And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no place to unwind

And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no place to unwind
