Come on, Girl, let me tell you a story
how once upon a time we fell in love
and everyday you told me that you loved me
I would've given you the stars above

and I was your prince charming,
and you were my princess too
an ever-lasting moment for a never ending tale
but you and I both know what's true

oh where oh where is my storybook ending
Gone before there's time enough to say
Happily ever after" it's what the good book said,
who knew ever after ends today?

and love was like it's in the stories
and though they say it isn't life
I took the chances with you, the good times and the bad
and the stars above still shed their light

and as one day you were in peril
I jumped my steed and headed straight to you
I slayed a dragon, fought a witch, I even bought a ring
and you did say, I love you too

So what could be your excuses
I am no beast, you needn't kiss a frog,
you had no evil stepmom to rain on your parade
and I would've given you the stars above

and right now you're safe and happy
in the arms of some foreign prince of thieves
and the stars above are looking down and laughing
"You read too much, this isn't life"
