When I sit upon an opal throne
and begin my life anew
I'll stand high on crystal mountains
and I'll still remember you
many kingdoms this land has seen
and emperors none too few
I'll be known to all the villages
but I'll still remember you
Memories will etch their weight on me
of lovers, fresh as dew
but in my dreams I'll find solace
since I'll still remember you
My judgments will cause agony
and revolutions may ensue
in battles to defend my land,
there I'll still remember you
The years will carve their lines in me
flowing on blood the wars had drew
Many dead will cry the name
who will still remember you
Ages pass as my lineage grows
and my time will come due
I'll die alone, on my opal throne
when I don't remember you
