I feel the roaring thunder coming
yet the sun is brightly shining
in the corner of my mind
I can see you through my curtain
and I feel your pride so certain
you really are one of a kind

Chorus:   But I'm still locked here
             for maybe one more year
             without luck, without proof
             feel like a fairy-tale
             in an imaginary jail
             I'm lying, gazing at the roof

When will my prince come rescue me?
it's hard to wait, it's hard to see
through the smoke that fills the air
I sit and wait and count the hours
alone up here in this tall tower
doesn't anybody care?

Chorus:   But I'm still locked here
             for maybe one more year
             without luck, without proof
             feel like a fairy-tale
             in an imaginary jail
             I'm lying, gazing at the roof

Well it's so very late at night
I'll start again with the first light
a fresh beginning, a new start
but in the meantime I will try
to keep my mind off you and I
and try to fix my broken heart
