The Ugly Fairy
My mother would tell a story, when I was only three
She would pick me up gently, and sit me upon her knee
The story told of a wee sweet little fairy, named Emily
Who lived in an English rose garden with her family
Now Emily wasn't pretty, but she had a heart of gold
She would daydream of finding, her own true love to hold
Living across the meadow from an English country home
It was said to be empty except for, a mean little gnome
One day flying in the meadow, a storm began to brew
raindrops fell upon her wings, the wind was blowing too
When the storm was over, she was far away from home
she had fallen into the arms of, an ugly little gnome
The gnome was ugly but she thought he looked hot
Though he was short and chubby, she really liked him a lot
Emily said the sun is setting and it is time for me to go
He said to Emily," there is something you should know
My name is Ian and I have always watched you from afar
I would sneak cross the meadow and wonder who you are
Whenever you were unhappy, I watched you cry your tears
You looked so very beautiful, I have loved you for years.
Well the story has a happy ending, Emily found true love
On their wedding day a rainbow streamed down from above
Emily and Ian are still happy, in the empty country home
People stare at their children, they never saw flying gnomes
