Once upon a fairytale, a tale that could come true,
There was a pretty princess, who heard of love so true.

She’d heard of something beautiful, of something harsh but nice,
Of something where there are no rules, where nothings wrong or right.

It was something much alike a spell, it put you in a trance.
It confused you, yet it seemed so right, this thing called true romance.

She wanted to be part of it, to find out if it’s true,
This fantastic feeling, of a love that is so true.

She wanted to feel special, feel wanted and feel free,
Of soaring high and flying, what love was said to be.

And once upon a fairytale, that story did come true.
The little pretty princess, found that dreams; they can come true.
