And the Moon Sleeps in Camelot |
LyricsA man takes his maidenand longs to hold her in his arms Two strangers that time has made Where's the magic? Where's the charm? CHORUS And the moon sleeps in Camelot And pretty maidens live in dreams But who shall ransom Lancelot when Camelot's not the way it seems? Lighted towers look over the green full of children's playthings one and all Winter goes and the tax man will come and o'er the playthings we'll hope he falls CHORUS |

| Story Behind the Song: I wrote this song while working as a window cleaner for all of these young couples who skipped their salad days and went right for the McMansion, the gardener,the nanny, the housekeeper and, I wondered- What was the point? Weren't they missing out on so many of the things that makes being married enjoyable? |
