Lyrics

Once upon a time
In a big blue chair
In a big blue chair where the lamplight glowed
Three little hearts in a blanket row
Pajama feet and sleepy eyes
Said, Daddy, one more story tonight
A kingdom bloomed on the bedroom wall
With crayon moons and castle halls
And somewhere past the dragon's flame
An old knight heard them call his name
A princess high, a lion near
A dragon breathing sparks of fear
Three voices rose, the room took flight
And bedtime turned into starlight
Ride, old knight, ride
Pink armor flashing in the firelight
Sword held high, lion at your side
Carry us, carry us through the night
Ride, old knight, ride
Through the dark where the brave hearts shine
When the shadows roar and the sparks fly wide
Carry us, carry us through the night
Ride, old knight, ride
Ride, ride, ride
Old knight, old knight
Carry us, carry us
Through the night
Through the cave where the glow worms gleamed
Past the lava from a little kid's dream
A flower bloomed in a monster's hand
While a unicorn bowed in a burning land
The witch spun gold in a midnight dance
The shadows stopped like they stood entranced
And every wild impossible thing
Felt real when Daddy began to sing
A tower shook, the dragon cried
The old knight never left their side
Three voices cheered, the room burned bright
And bedtime turned into starlight
Ride, old knight, ride
Pink armor flashing in the firelight
Sword held high, lion at your side
Carry us, carry us through the night
Ride, old knight, ride
Through the dark where the brave hearts shine
When the shadows roar and the sparks fly wide
Carry us, carry us through the night
Ride, old knight, ride
He tucked them in, kissed every head
Sweet dreams of unicorns, he softly said
But the smallest voice, with wonder wide
Said, Daddy… are you the old knight?
He smiled from the doorway, gentle and slow
No, sweetheart… but I need you to know
When I was lost in the dark one night
The old knight came… and saved my life
So dream, little ones
Let the brave light stay
Some heroes ride
So we find our way
Ride, old knight, ride
Pink armor blazing in the firelight
Sword held high, lion at your side
You carried us, carried us through the night
Ride, old knight, ride
Through the dark where the brave hearts shine
When the shadows roared and the sparks flew wide
You carried us, carried us through the night
Ride, old knight, ride
Ride, ride, ride
Old knight, old knight
Carry us, carry us
Through the night
Ride, ride, ride
Old knight, old knight
Carry us, carry us
Through the night
Once upon a time
In a big blue chair
The old knight rode
And love was there
