My White Knight Lyrics

[MARIAN]
My white knight
Not a Lancelot, nor an angel with wings
Just someone to love me
Who is not ashamed of a few nice things
My white knight
What my heart would say if it only knew how
Please dear, Venus
Show me how

All I want is a plain man
All I want is a modest man
A quiet man, a gentle man
A straightforward and honest man
To sit with me in a cottage somewhere in the state of Iowa
And I would like him to be more interested in me
Than he is in himself
And more interested in us than in me
And if occasionally he'd ponder
What makes Shakespeare and Beethoven great
Him I could love 'til I die
Him I could love 'til I die

My white knight
Not a Lancelot, nor an angel with wings
Just someone to love me
Who is not ashamed of a few nice things
My white knight
Let me walk with him
Where the others ride by
Walk and love him
'Til I die
'Til I die

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
