Fairy Tales

I once believed in Fairy Tales and a happy ever after, the magic of
the unicorn, the innocence of laughter.

But the Fairy Princess doesn't dance, no prince to take her hand,
no knight in shining armor and the castle's only sand.

I once believed in Fairy Tales and that wishes would be granted,
that clouds had silver linings and the forests were enchanted.

But the rainbow doesn't have an end, there is no pot of gold, the
four leaf clover's wilted and the leprechaun's grown old.

I once believed in Fairy Tales and that lovers never part, that I'd
find that special someone that I could give my heart.
