Lyrics
VERSE: I had a simple dream
Same as any girl with the stars still in her eyes
And I thought you could be that dream
Until you went away and took back my starry skies
BRIDGE: Started out with romance
Like a fairy tale or a love song
we were dancing in the moonlight
Where has the romance gone?
CHORUS: How could I be so naive
To believe you were so in love with me?
Now I?m standing here with my heart in my hands
again
How could I be so deceived
To believe all the lies that you fed to me?
Now I?m standing here with my heart in my hands
again.
VERSE: I should have known from the start
That you didn?t care, and that you could not
understand
But I gave you my foolish heart
Now I?m shattered by your thoughtless, careless hands
BRIDGE Started out so peaceful
The way night gives way to a new dawn
and you held me in the sunrise
Where has the romance gone?
CHORUS
