A PRINCE

A PRINCE

I dreamed of Cinderella, the stepsisters, the slipper of glass and a prince

But he was only in that fairy tale

Only in my hidden dreams


I dreamed of Snow White, the magic mirror, the poisoned apple and a prince

But he was only in that fairy tale

Only in my hidden dreams


Every little girl is dreaming of her prince

Even when she’s growing up to be a woman

Hoping that one day she’s going to meet him

That one morning, she wakes up next to him


I dreamed of the Sleeping Beauty, the enchantment, the wooden spindle and a prince

But he was only in that fairy tale

Only in my hidden dreams


I dreamed of the Beauty and the Beast, the dazzling castle, the beautiful roses and a prince

But he was only in that fairy tale

Only in my hidden dreams


Every little girl is dreaming of her prince

Even when she’s growing up to be a woman

Hoping that one day she’s going to meet him

That one morning, she wakes up next to him

 

I dreamed of the Little Mermaid, the underwater kingdom, the sea witch and a prince

But he was only in that fairy tale

Only in my hidden dreams


I dreamed of Rapunzel, the high tower, the growing hair and a prince

But he was only in that fairy tale

Only in my hidden dreams


Every little girl is dreaming of her prince

Even when she’s growing up to be a woman

Hoping that one day she’s going to meet him

That one morning, she wakes up next to him
