Once Upon a Time

Once upon a time 
In a world of make believe
There lived a little girl 
Very young and so naive
In her world, there were no tears 
No broken hearts to mend
For she believed that fairy-tales 
All had a happy end
As she grew she always dreamed 
That one day she would meet
A young and handsome prince 
Who would sweep her off her feet
He would fall in love with her 
And fill her life with laughter
Every day and always 
They’d live happy ever after
Then one day her prince arrived 
And got down on one knee
Declaring all his love
He asked her "will you marry me”
Walking down the aisle to him
She the thanked the Lord above
For making all her dreams come true 
In finding her true love
Standing side by side 
Their vows of love they say
And an ordinary morning 
Became an extraordinary day
They face a new beginning 
Where their hopes and dreams come true
They sealed their love forever 
As today they said “I Do”
Fate brought them together 
Two halves that made a whole
Two strangers who connected 
And found each other’s soul
For each line on their face 
There is a story to be told
Each precious moment shared 
Will be a wonder to behold
Time stands still for no one 
Things will change along the way
But always they’ll remember 
The vows they made today
And as the years pass by 
Their dreams they will fulfil
And that little girl will know...
That fairy-tales are real...
