Lyrics
Sentinel
©1997 James C. Akans (734) 904-0845
Son of the second son, keeper of the fire
Defender and confidant, leader and esquire
He?s a little crazy
Doesn?t want to know
Strikes fast like wildfire
Under control
Of a sentinel, deciding friend or foe
Eyes generations old, of a sentinel
Guardian of order, seen it come and seen it go
Shifting borders, settling scores, so..
He?s a little crazy
Still he needs to know
Hears his father?s voice
Tell him so
He?s the sentinel, try an let it go
Ties generations old
Of a sentinel
Checks the horizon and
Doesn?t trust the night
Worries when everything?s alright
He?s the sentinel
Conscientious soul
Where ever he goes
He?s the sentinel
Where ever he goes
He?s the sentinel
