Lyrics
CINDERELLA AT 12:01
Lyrics and music, by Winston Apple
Once upon a time we fell in love
It was a fairy tale romance
We were gonna live happily ever after
I thought our love was a dream come true
But it's a nightmare now, I'm losing you
I've tried so hard to save our love
But nothing I do seems to matter
Hey, Cinderella it's 12:01
Is our story over or has it just begun?
I see you running, honey, what are you running from?
Are you the one I've been searching for?
Am I gonna be your prince?
I guess that we'll find out when we see if the slipper fits
How can a love start out so strong
And still fall short of a happy ending?
I could take you in my arms right now
And tell you that I love you
And I wouldn't be lying, but I'm not so sure I wouldn't be pretending
Hey, Cinderella it's 12:01....
I thought I'd found true love at last
I thought with you, I'd found a love that would stand the test of time
Now I'm feeling sad, and so confused
I get the feeling that you're feeling the same way
I see you reaching out to hold me
When I know you've got leaving on your mind
We're running out of time
Hey, Cinderella it's 12:01....
