Fairy Tale Ending

I.

When I was a little girl

I used to stare at the storybook all day long

Wishing that I was the princess, that was

Whisked off by the handsome prince

Every night I would wish

I would pray to God that someday

I’d also be, living a fairy tale of my own

But I don’t think that’s what fate had in plan

Cuz until now no one’s reached out their hand

Chorus:

If Cinderella had Prince Charming

If Jasmine had Aladdin

Why can’t I find a prince to call my own?
Do I have to try on a glass slipper?

Fall into a deep sleep just so

My true love would come rescue me?

From this life I lead

II.

I am older now

And the storybooks have been long since put away

I’ve faced reality, but I still can’t help but hope that someday

I would find that one special person

Maybe I don’t understand the lesson to be learned

Chorus:

If Cinderella had Prince Charming

If Jasmine had Aladdin

Why can’t I find a prince to call my own?
Do I have to try on a glass slipper?

Fall into a deep sleep just so

My true love would come rescue me?

From this life I lead

Bridge:

I just don’t understand how I feel

Cuz I’m beginning to believe that

Fairy tales aren’t real

Chorus: (2x)

If Cinderella had Prince Charming

If Jasmine had Aladdin

Why can’t I find a prince to call my own?
Do I have to try on a glass slipper?

Fall into a deep sleep just so

My true love would come rescue me?

From this life I lead

Every princess got their fairy tale ending

So why can’t I?
