Lyrics

I get restless in me, and head for the horizon
Don’t know where I’m going, but I know when I’ll find it –
If it wants to be found

The road is calling, wide open spaces
I want my adventure, I wanna meet new faces
I don’t wanna let you down

But I’m stuck in the romance of what’s in my blind spot
Why can’t I make peace with all of the good I’ve got
It’s like I married King Arthur but I still want Lancelot – Oh I want Lancelot!

There’s a picture of me at 7 years old
My father had gone, the world had grown cold
I still remember that day

Since then I’ve been looking, mostly in vain
For the right song, the right man to help dull the pain
But unlike my daddy, it stays

And now I’m stuck in the romance of what’s in my blind spot
Why can’t I make peace with all of the good I’ve got
Oh I married you Arthur, but I still want Lancelot – Oh I want Lancelot!
So I go - looking for Lancelot! Oh, I go - looking for Lancelot!

I’ve been wearing a crown that never quite fit
So give it to someone deserving of it.
But, don’t call me Gweneivere, I don’t wanna fail!
Or go down in history a cautionary tale
Or run to the arms of another addiction
I call it adventure but it’s sad, and it’s fiction!
I wanna know love, I wanna know freedom
But those two things don’t get along in my head when I need ‘em
I gotta do something, but what I don’t know
I don’t want to torment you so I guess I’ll just go ---

And keep looking for Lancelot.
Oh, but I know there’s no one named Lancelot.
