Come my love I'll tell you a tale,
Of a boy and girl and there love story.
And how he loved her oh so much,
and all the charms she did possess.
Now this did happen once upon a time,
When things were not so complex.
And how he worshiped the ground she walked,
And when he looked in her eyes he became obsessed.
My love is like a storybook story,
But it’s as real as the feelings I feel.
My love is like a storybook story,
But it’s as real as the feelings I feel.
His love was stronger than the power so dark,
A prince could have within his keeping.
His spells to weave and steal her heart,
Within her breast but only sleeping.
My love is like a storybook story,
But its as real as the feelings I feel.
My love is like a storybook story,
But its as real as the feelings I feel.
And he said:
"Don't you know I love you oh, so much,
and lay my heart at the foot of your dress."
She said:
"Don't you know that storybook loves,
Always have a happy ending."
Then he swooped her up just like in the books
And on his stallion they rode away.
My love is like a storybook story,
But its as real as the feelings I feel.
My love is like a storybook story,
But its as real as the feelings I feel.
