Dougal & Gammer feat. Hannah Faulkner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You′re the moron for leading me on
I thought we had a lot in common
But we had no common ground to start from
And you were always so indecisive
You would take it all, but never give
Was it just another keepsake?
And I thought you, you were my knight in shining armour woah-ohh
But you were just a fool, wrapped in tin foil
And I thought you, you were my knight in shining armour woah-ohh
But you were just a fool, wrapped in tin foil
And I thought you, you were my knight in shining armour woah-ohh
But you were just a fool, wrapped in tin foil
And I thought you, you were my knight in shining armour woah-ohh
But you were just a fool, wrapped in tin foil
I've been adding up the pro′s and cons
You′re the moron for leading me on
I thought we had a lot in common
But we had no common ground to start from
And you were always so indecisive
You would take it all, but never give
Was it just another keepsake?
I wish you'd see the error of your ways
And I thought you, you were my knight in shining armour woah-ohh
But you were just a fool, wrapped in tin foil
And I thought you, you were my knight in shining armour woah-ohh
But you were just a fool, wrapped in tin foil
And I thought you, you were my knight in shining armour woah-ohh
But you were just a fool, wrapped in tin foil
And I thought you, you were my knight in shining armour woah-ohh
But you were just a fool, wrapped in tin foil
The lyrics of Knight In Shining Armour depicts a story of a person who is reflecting on a past relationship that did not work out. The singer believed that the person they were with was their "knight in shining armor," but as time passed, they revealed themselves as someone who led them on and lacked a lot of important qualities. As opposed to having a shared perspective, the couple discovered they had nothing in common, and in significant choices, the individual was indecisive, never providing anything other than what they wanted from the relationship. The singer took time to calculate the pros and cons of being in the relationship, and when they found the courage to end things, the person left just like a "fool wrapped in tin foil."
The lyrics deliver an emotional and relatable message about the realization that sometimes our initial perception of people can be the opposite of who they actually are. Dougal & Gammer feat. Hannah Faulkner use the metaphor of a "knight in shining armor" to depict a person who is there to protect and support us, but sometimes the people who we believe to be our protectors turn out to be individuals whose intentions were different from ours. This song reminds us that it is essential to take time to analyze a person's character before committing to a relationship, and that it's okay to walk away from something we once believed would work.
