Lucy Kaplansky Guinevere by Robin Batteau
Guinevere in my
castle in
Normandy
Make a new
home with me
come follow me
down
Guinevere all my
honor and
glory
Will just be a
story of the
fall of the
crown
Am I some dancing Lancelot
who only falls in love
With a
woman who belongs to
someone else
Is it
just the blood of Paris
running through my veins
That sees a takes
woman and
myself I can't
restrain
Is this
knight of cups in his noble stance
Just a
jack of clubs with an eye askance
On the
queen of hearts in her
royal blue
I may
shield the poor but I can't save
you
Guinevere in my
castle in
Normandy
Make a new
home with me
come follow me
down
Guinevere all my
honor and
glory
Will just be a
story of the
fall of the
crown
Golden apples on the mountain
this one fell to me
We are
planets in a
heartless gravity
I never chose to make a choice
It
felt like someone else's voice
Saying all those
crazy things
down on one
knee
Cassandra never cast a shadow now it's
heading to the shore
Oh the face that launched a
thousand ships is
sailing one
more
Guinevere in my
castle in
Normandy
Make a new
home with me
come follow me
down
Guinevere all my
honor and
glory
Will just be a
story of the
fall of the
crown>From Lucy Kaplansky The Tide CD
