I recall once upon a time When the maiden's love was only mine My kisses couldn't be outdone They swept you off your feet And lifted you up All our bridges falling down All our building burnt to the ground I don't know why I couldn't see That it starts with a word And I think it's sorry I'm not the prince anymore As you lie in your bed I walked out the door The fairy tale's over Communication was poor And I'm not the prince anymore Mirror mirror on the wall Who's the lonliest man of them all Because no ones left to reply To answer my question Why, lady why? I'm not the prince anymore Why you lay in your bed As I walked out the door While the fairy tale's over Communication is poor And why I'm not the prince anymore
