Cinderella's Dream

[Verse] She woke up from the misty night Fairy tales whisperin' under dim light Eyes wide with wonder soft as a breeze Princess in dreams reality's tease [Verse 2] Moonlight fade mystic shadows fall Whispers in the hall silver threads tall A regal dress spun from morning dew Dancin' alone the echoes grew [Chorus] She ain't Cinderella no glass shoe no crown A dream princess a world spun around Lost in her vision but dreams can deceive The real princess lived a life to retrieve [Verse 3] Mirror’s truth cold hard uncaring An image shattered her heart's despairing In the kingdom of shadows she roams Chasing illusions far from home [Verse 4] In a world of masquerades twisted fate Masks worn a crown came too late Awake to reality a life less grand Her dream of royalty slipping like sand [Bridge] Waltzin' through foggy streets alone A melody hushed a heart to atone Princes and castles just shadows now She walks on earth broken solemn vow
