Lyrics

Fairytale
My life was just a fairytale
I was letting an illusion
Come into this heart of mine
Fairytale
Searchin' for a fairytale
Hiding in a world
Where life was simple all the time

I was just like peter pan in never never land
Afraid of what the future might be
Afraid to face the things I couldn't understand
Afraid of things that I couldn't see

But fantasy
I know there's more to life than a fantasy
There's so much more that my life was meant to be
So much more than make-believe

Fairytale
It seems just like fairytale
But there's something in my heart
That says this time the story's real
Fairytale
Extraordinary tale
Of a king who offers love
So far beyond what I can feel

There's a world out there that human eyes can never see
But it's just within the reach of the heart
Two princes wages the battle for eternity
But the victor has been known from the start

Now I can see
The truth can seem so much like a fantasy
But make-believe was never as real to me
I know this time the story's true

Just like sleeping beauty in a neverland
I was dying under a spell
But then a prince who comes from the foreverland
Awakened me from my fairytale
