Lyrics
V1
Why won't you tell me you love me?
We have been together for so long
Why won't you say that you need me?
Could it be this love is turning wrong?
PRECHORUS
Could it be it takes this long for love to fail?
Did you think that love would be just like a fairy tale?
CHORUS
With a lifetime of dreaming
A castle for a queen
but when castles stop gleaming
And magic is unseen
Just come back... to the place... we belong
V2
Today is the first day of forever, and
I don't want to spend it without you
All of these words that seemed so... clever
All point to something about you
PRECHORUS
Could it be it takes this long for love to fail?
Did you think that love would be just like a fairy tale?
CHORUS
With a lifetime of dreaming
A castle for a queen
but when castles stop gleaming
And magic is unseen
Just come back... to the place... we belong
