Verse 1

If someone told me you'd be here

whispering these familiar things

talking to my little pets

smoking the same old cigarettes

I would have laughed

Verse 2

I saw you last in summertime

You said you hated long goodbyes

You said there's nothing to explain

in every life a little rain

et cetera

Chorus

And a long-forgotten fairytale

is in your eyes again

and I'm caught inside a dream world

where the colors are too intense

and nothing is making sense

There's a floating town of eiderdown

in a mist of mystery

There's an old enchanted castle

and the princess there is me

decked out like a Christmas tree

****I think you guys can figure out the rest it's the exact same thing. There you go. Enjoy!

I guess you've had your little joke

but I have lost my sense of humor

My medication's wearing off

or it's just not strong enough

to cover this

and then you kiss me like before

and I find myself wanting more

and you tell that little lie

that kept me hypnotized:

another kiss...

And a long-forgotten fairytale

is in your eyes again

and I'm caught inside a dream world

where the colors are too intense

and nothing is making sense

There's a floating town of eiderdown

in a mist of mystery

There's an old enchanted castle

and the princess there is me

decked out like a Christmas tree

If someone told me I'd succumb

If someone said I'd be so dumb

after all the sleepless nights

when I turned on all the lights

I would have hit them

but I have turned the other cheek

My voice trembles, my knees are weak

and you beat me once again

and I know what happens then:

you raise the ante...

And a long-forgotten fairytale

is in your eyes again

and I'm caught inside a dream world

where the colors are too intense

and nothing is making sense
