Life's a fairy tale, even if it seems to have been written by the Brothers Grimm on occasion.
In some enchanted forest
I know that's where you are
Locked up in a tower
But I have got to see you soon
Lots of blocks and barricades
There's danger on all sides
Ah but it don't make no difference
I've got to see your eyes
And I'll walk through all that darkness
With a single burning light
And I'll get to you this evening
And make everything all right
'cause every fairy tale
Must have a princess
And every fairy tale
Must have a queen
They can lock you up for trying
If you don't look for here
She won't know where you are
I've walked the length of Egypt
I've lived beneath the sea
You're a goddess of redemption
You're the living flame in me
Sometimes there is that distance
And I don't know where you are
Then you'll show up in some woman's eyes
And take me in your arms
You know I'm going to miss you
You keep dancing out of sight
I may miss you in the daytime
But you'll come to me tonight
'cause every fairy tale must have a princess
And every fairy tale must have a queen
They can lock you up for trying
If you don't look for her she won't know where you are
My life has been about you
You hide between the leaves
You disappear around the corner
And you surface in my dream
I can hear you in the raindrops
I can touch you when I can
You are everywhere around me
You're the reason I'm a man
I've been looking for you lately
So I know that you're around
Another link in God's creation
In this moment when you're found
'cause every fairy tale must have a princess
And every fairy tale must have a queen
They can lock you up for trying
If you don't look for her she won't know where you are
If you don't look for her she won't know where you are
