What

Tuesday, April 14, 2009

When I was a little girl

I heard the stories about all the princes

and the knights in shining armor

who knew it'd be this way.

Mommy never told me how it really is

Mommy never told me what heartbreak was

All I knew is I was waiting for that charming

something

I knew he was coming for me

My knight, my prince, my everything

I remember dreaming about being swept away

to a castle, in a high high tower, hidden away

waiting for that true love's kiss

but

Mommy never told me how it really is

Mommy never told me what heartbreak was

Dreamin' bout that perfect boy, who'll sweep you off your feet

but he's never what you expect

I've met a lot of prince charmings and knights

I've had a lot of kisses and a lot of tears

because

Mommy never told me how it really is

Mommy never told me what heartbreak was

And now I know that love is tough, prince charmings

aren't so charming and knights can do what any other man can

but I know now that love is tough and Mommy told me

it was worth it, every second, every moment

Mommy never told me it would be the person you least expect

Mommy never told me how much you'd cry

Mommy never told me about the fights and the shoutin

But now that I've seen the prince charmings and the knights

I can see you clearly, you're the one for me

You're not what I saw as a little girl but you're the one

who swept me off my feet, made me feel like your princess

and took me to your castle and slipped that ring on my finger

cause

Mommy never told me how wonderful it really is

Mommy never told me what its like to find your true love
