One of my favourite songs from the 1985 movie, Alice in Wonderland. The White Knight saves Alice from the Red Knight and then sings a beautiful song to her.
"We are dancing.
We didn't need a cue,
Yet with a girl like you,
It seems the thing to do,
Don't you agree?
I hear the strings,
My poor heart sings,
And we are dancing.
We share a smile,
And for a while,
We two are dancing.
If ever time should bring another year,
Another spring,
They'll be compared,
To what I've shared,
With you.
I hear the strings,
My poor heart sings,
And we are dancing.
We share a smile,
And for a while,
We two are dancing.
If ever time should bring another year,
Another spring,
They'll be compared,
To what I've shared,
With you."
Where have all the knights gone?
What a beautiful song, what a beautiful performance. This song bored me when I was really young but it brings me to tears now. It's sweet, in a sad way, how one thing can appear different to a person at different times in that person's life.

That is funny. I feel the same way about the songs from this movie. Bored me more as a child but I find myself listening to it all the time as an adult. Many of the songs in this movie have become bedtime songs for my 3 little ones.
