lyrics

There is a man who has travelled many lands
He sings of what he sees and the people he meets
Through his song you can travel along
Across the lines of time

Oh there is the pharaoh and his concubine
There sits Mary with her lover divine

Can you see it?
Can you hear it?
The tale of the troubadour
The tale of the troubadour

Smell the spices of the West
Breathe in the seas of the East
Put to your mouth this moveable feast
But be wary not to feed the beast
Be wary not to feed the beast

Can you feel it?
Can you hear it?
The tale of the troubadour
The tale of the troubadour

Oh and he weaves world's words in a wondrous way
Listens to what the skies have to say
Travel on troubadour
Travel on travel on
Travel on troubadour
Travel on

Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah

There over the mountain side
Stands a man singing far and wide
There over the mountain side
Stands a man singing far and wide
Can you hear him?
Can you hear him?
