Camelot: Guenevere

Lyrics

Oh they found Guenevere
 With her bold cavalier
 And as swords rang through the hall
 Lance escaped them one and all
 On a day dark and drear
 Came to trial Guenevere
 Ruled the jury for her shame
 She be sentenced to the flame
 Early dawn was the time
 She would pay for her crime
 Or would Lancelot reappear
 Come and rescue Guenevere?
 I'll wager the king himself is hoping he will return
 Why would he have chosen five AM for the queen to burn?
 When the world is black and gray what time would be more ideal
 For Lancelot to come and steal Guenevere?
 As the dawn filled the sky
 On the day she would die
 There was wonder far and near
 Would the king burn Guenevere?
 Then suddenly earth and sky were dazed by a pounding roar
 And suddenly through the dawn an army began to pour
 And lo ahead the army holding aloft his spear
 Came Lancelot to save his dear Guenevere
 By the score fell the dead
 As the yard turned to red
 Countless numbers felt his spear
 As he rescued Guenevere
 ♪
 In that dawn in that gloom
 More than love met its doom
 In the dying candle's gleam
 Came the sundown of a dream
 Guenevere Guenevere
 In that dim, mournful year
 Saw the men she held most dear
 Go to war for Guenevere
 Guenevere Guenevere
 Guenevere Guenevere
 Saw the men she held most dear
 Go to war for Guenevere
 Guenevere Guenevere
 Guenevere
