Edwin McCain - Guinevere Lyrics

After all the corridors are darkened When the royal crown is off your head To your chambers I will creep not a word we will speak Just love me while the fire light dances ’round the bed Well there is danger in this passion Because the king can never never know And on my blood I’ve sworn my allegiance So I’ll leave you when the sunlight comes and beckons me to go And the silver shine is tarnished from my armor And in battle I am paralyzed with fear And this poison in my soul is the love we’ll never know And it finds me playing lancelot to your guinevere Well and guinevere is sly enough to steal a little taste And her laughter it peals into the night Oh but forbidden fruit always stays sticky on your face And without virtue I’m worthless in a fight Stealing little glances at the table I feel that this is theatre in the round But far away chasing s in the meadow Your love like wind, blows right by and sweeps me off the ground Your love sweeps me off the ground Well now it sweeps me off the the ground And the silver shine is tarnished from my armor And in battle I am paralyzed with fear And this poison in my soul is the love we’ll never know And it finds me playing lancelot to your guinevere Edwin McCain Lyrics Guinevere Lyrics
