Once in an ordinary life.........



I used to think that fairytales didn’t happen to girls like me
And everything that those stories represent were purely fantasy
I used to joke that ‘Prince Charming’ was a totally useless guy
And thoughts that I hoped he’d come my way, I’d vehemently deny
I’d blame my Mom for reading me all those stupid tales,
For making me believe that this character was the epitome of all males
My own personal ‘love story’ had long ago worked out this was untrue
‘cus surely Prince Charming would never lie and cheat and leave you black and blue
To be fair I have fallen for some decent guys along the way
But the calibre of a fairytale Prince, their actions did never portray
So I’d resigned myself to the fact that this character did not really exist
And accepted that my own fairy story was just a fairytale with a cruel twist
But then once in an ordinary life, you happened to appear
Just when I thought that everything was going so bad this year
You showed me that ‘Once upon a time’ was the ending of our first begin
And sent an orchestra playing in my head, with my own personal violin
You showed me that love can appear from a rare and unexpected friend
And that our hearts, and minds and souls were that perfect fairytale blend
You made me believe in an instant that dreams really can come true
‘cus I know that I don’t need Prince Charming becaue I've the perfect guy in you
I never really believed in the whole soul mate thing
And never thought my heart again would ever joyously sing
You’ve bought a smile to my face, and filled my heart with laughter
I’m keeping my fingers crossed, but believe you’re my ‘happily ever after’
