Song by Ensemble<br /><br>

SOLO<br>

Oh, they found Guenevere<br>

With her bold cavalier<br>

And as swords rang through the hall<br>

Lance escaped them, one and all<br>

<br>

On a day dark and drear<br>

Came to trial Guenevere<br>

Ruled the jury for her shame<br>

She be sentenced to the flame<br>

<br>

CHORUS<br>

Early dawn was the time<br>

She would pay for her crime<br>

Or would Lancelot reappear<br>

Come and rescue Guenevere?<br>

<br>

SOLO<br>

I'll wager the king himself is hoping he will return<br>

Why would he have chosen five AM for the queen to burn?<br>

When the world is black and gray, what time would be more ideal<br>

For Lancelot to steal Guenevere?<br>

<br>

CHORUS<br>

As the dawn filled the sky<br>

On the day she would die<br>

There was wonder far and near<br>

Would the king burn Guenevere?<br>

<br>

SOLO<br>

Then suddenly earth and sky were dazed by a pounding roar<br>

And suddenly through the dawn an army began to pour<br>

And lo, ahead the army, holding aloft his spear<br>

Came Lancelot to save his dear Guenevere<br>

<br>

CHORUS<br>

By the score fell the dead<br>

As the sky turned to red<br>

Countless numbers felt his spear<br>

As he rescued Guenevere<br>

<br>

In that dawn, in that gloom<br>

More than love met its doom<br>

In the dying candle's gleam<br>

Came the sundown of a dream<br>

<br>

Guenevere, Guenevere<br>

In that dim, mournful year<br>

Saw the men she held most dear<br>

Go to war for Guenevere<br>

<br>

Guenevere, Guenevere<br>

Guenevere, Guenevere<br>

Saw the men she held most dear<br>

Go to war for Guenevere<br>

<br>

Guenevere, Guenevere, Guenevere<br>

<br>

<br>
