First time I loved you

First time I loved you
was a thousand years ago.
Seems like some fairy tale
that everyone should know.

Now I’m standing here
and you don’t seem to see.
What happened to the prince (Princess)
that lives in my memory?

~~~~~~~~~~~~

I feel our passion
as the stars fall from the sky
I hear your voice
in every wind swept sigh

But when I reach for you
you just turn away
Baby, take my hand
come with me to stay

~~~~~~~~~~~

First time I loved you
was a thousand years ago.
Seems like some fairy tale
that everyone should know.

Now I’m standing here
and you don’t seem to see.
What happened to that prince
that lives in my memory?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Your walking through this world
lonely and alone
If you don’t take, your heart out soon
it’s sure to turn to stone

I’m walking here
in the shadow’s of your eyes.
If you’d just look at me
you’d  know your lost in lies.


~~~~~~~~~~~

First time I loved you
was a thousand years ago.
Seems like some fairy tale
that everyone should know.

Now I’m standing here
and you don’t seem to see.
What happened to that prince
that lives in my memory

~~~~~~~~~~

There are no magic slippers
I could place upon your feet
no wand to wave
no dragon I could beat.

Cause all the magic
lies deep inside of you
just share your love with me
and you will see it’s true.

First time I loved you

that everyone should know.

Now I’m standing here
and you don’t seem to see.
What happened to that prince
that lives in my memory
