Peacocks wandered aimlessly underneath an orange tree: Why can't she see me? Guinnevere drew pentagrams Like yours, Milady, like yours, Late at night when she tought That no-one was watching at all, on the wall. Do- do- do... We shall be free. As she turns her gaze Down the slope to the harbour Where I lay Anchored for a day... Guinnevere had golden hair Like yours, Milady, like yours, Streaming out when we'd ride Through the warm wind down by the bay, yesterday. Seagulls circle endlessly, I sing in silent harmony: We shall be free....
