Once Upon A Time In A Fairy Tale Land

Once upon a time in a fairy tale land

A little girl wandered into the woods

With little pigtails, wearing a scarlet dress

She looked a lot like Little Red Riding Hood

Running away quickly, chased by a wolf

A threat of distant, haunting memories of the past,

She needed a friend, needed a change in life

She needed one badly and she needed it fast

She lived with seven dwarves when a merchant came along

Who sold her a shiny apple, from which she took a bite

Not knowing it was poisoned, she fell to the floor

And that's when, in spite of everything, the little girl died

But then, one day, a handsome prince rode by

Searching all about, looking for a wife,

He stumbled upon the dwarves, and her coffin, too

Leaning over slowly, he kissed her back to life

*Chores*

Once upon a time in a fairy tale land

This little girl's dream came true

Once upon a time in a fairy tale land

I was blessed with meeting you

I'd always thought hope was a falsehood,

I always thought wishes were lies

But once upon a time in a fairy tale land

It was you who taught me otherwise

Once upon a time in a fairy tale land

A young girl was torn apart

A relative's death turned her world upside down

She thought nothing could mend her broken heart

She danced all night long with a handsome young prince

The day after that, he appeared at her door,

Sliding on her foot his glass slipper of love

She was the one he'd been looking for

*Chorus*

*Bridge*

So now what's the point in me denying

That you're the reason I'm no longer crying?

I was afraid, but you took my hand

And showed me all around fairy tale land!

*Optional*

And if you were to take a chance with me

I promise I'd love you for eternity

If you were to ask if I'd be your princess

I want you to know my answer would be "yes!"

*Chorus #2*

Once upon a time in a fairy tale land

I made a wish on a star up above

Once upon a time in a fairy tale land

An angel overheard and I was blessed with love

Once upon a time in a fairy tale land

Where little girls' dreams come true…
