Lyrics

I grew up in a fairy story
Houses like palaces were my friends
Clothes I chose on an April morning
Colours I loved when the winter ends

Then one day I met my Prince Charming
A child like me who had grown to a man
Took my hand on a summer evening
Promised me gold and a foreign land

Sailed away on a ship through sunsets
Far from lands eyes of mine had seen
Took my first look at Ivory towers
Told myself that I was his queen

Spent three years in a foreign castle
Paradise mine and a charming man
Lived on love in those Ivory Towers
Forests of green and a desert’s sand

Messenger came and called Prince Charming
Dragons to fight need to be a man
He rode off on that summer evening
All I them knew, was he would not return

I grew up in a fairy story
Promised me gold and a foreign land
