Kristin Chenoweth - My White Knight

Kristin singing My White Knight in Meredith Willson's The Music Man.

My White Knight

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 who knew what my heart would say
if it only knew how.
Please, dear Venus, show me now.

All I want is a plain man; all i want is a modest man;
a quiet man, a gentle man, a straight forward 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 occasion'ly he'd ponder what make
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 others ride by;
walk and love him 'til I die. 'til I die.
