Caballero Andante (2012)
Music and Lyrics by Davy Stone

lyrics

I call myself don Quijote, My real name I've forgotten long ago
I spent too much time cooped up so I armored up and hit the road
I found my lady love, she doesn't know me but she's always on my mind
I call her Dulcinea, and for her honor and favor I will always fight
They say I'm crazy, they call me crazy

I'm just a caballero andante, wandering the south of Spain on a ragged old steed
They all say that I'm tilting at windmills and things aren't as they seem
I see giants to be slain and damsels to rescue
I see armies on the plains; I guess they're all in my head too

Mi compañero Sancho Panza sticks by my side even though he has his doubts
He cries out to me that those aren't armies stirring up those dust clouds
But I won't listen; I haven't heard a single word he's said
I'll never quit, never give up, I'll fight for what's right like the heroes in the books I've read
And you can say I'm crazy, just call me crazy

I'm just a caballero andante wandering the south of Spain on a ragged old horse
They all say that I'm tilting at windmills, but I'll maintain my course
I see giants to be slain and damsels to rescue
Armies advance across the plains; I'm told they're all in my head,
But I don't care what anyone else says
They don't understand, they don't see what I see
Come what may, We'll keep on keeping on, Rocinante and me
They want me to come home, to return to sanity
But I'm committed to this path; there's no end in sight for me

Me llamo don Quijote; mi nombre yo no quiero recordar
He dedicado mi vida a perseguir la cosa que me falta
