Lyrics Sweet Sir Galahad - Joan Baez
SWEET
SIR
GALAHAD
(Words
and
Music
by
Joan
Baez)
Sweet
Sir
Galahad
Came
in
through
the
window
In
the
night
when
The
moon
was
in
the
yard.
He
took
her
hand
in
his
And
shook
the
long
hair
From
his
neck
and
he
told
her
She′d
been
working
much
too
hard.
It
was
true
that
ever
since
the
day
Her
crazy
man
had
passed
away
To
the
land
of
poet's
pride,
She
laughed
and
talked
alot
With
new
people
on
the
block
But
always
at
evening
time
she
cried.
And
here′s
to
the
dawn
of
their
days.
She
moved
her
head
A
little
down
on
the
bed
Until
it
rested
softly
on
his
knee.
And
there
she
dropped
her
smile
And
there
she
sighed
awhile,
And
told
him
all
the
sadness
Of
those
years
that
numbered
three.
Well
you
know
I
think
my
fate's
belated
Because
of
all
the
hours
I
waited
For
the
day
when
I'd
no
longer
cry.
I
get
myself
to
work
by
eight
But
oh,
was
I
born
too
late,
And
do
you
think
I′ll
fail
At
every
single
thing
I
try?
And
here′s
to
the
dawn
of
their
days.
He
just
put
his
arm
around
her
And
that's
the
way
I
found
her
Eight
months
later
to
the
day.
The
lines
of
a
smile
erased
The
tear
tracks
upon
her
face,
A
smile
could
linger,
even
stay.
Sweet
Sir
Galahad
went
down
With
his
gay
bride
of
flowers,
The
prince
of
the
hours
Of
her
lifetime.
And
here′s
to
the
dawn
Of
their
days,
Of
their
days.
