Just A Dream

Verse 1
Once upon a time, on a silent winter's night
I awoke from a sound sleep to a bright light shining down upon me
There was something glowing through my closet doors
I tossed the covers off my bed and slowly crept to the door
I opened it and bright light flooded into my eyes like the sun
And then I wonderstruck into a wonderland

Verse 2
Stepping inside, my bare feet touched upon lush green grass
Suddenly, I was transported into a forest with bright shinning yellow rays of sun
Streaming down on me through the trees
Birds tweeted, singing their song, and wild horses roamed through the green field
Galloping in the distance, I saw
I continued walking, and all of the sudden, I heard hoofbeats behind me
Turning around, I was wonderstruck by what I saw

Pre-Chorus
Prince Charming came galloping on his white horse to me
He stopped and stared at me
Said, "come on up here."
He grabbed me, swooped down, grabbed my arm and pulled me upon his saddle
Behind me
Said "hold on, my enchanting girl"
And he started to sing a tune
I started too and gasped when we came into full view of a palace

Chorus
This isn't an ordinary dream before
You're not asleep, you should know that
You've been thinking of your prince charming to come and swoop down
Wisk you off your feet
Well here you are, here's your fairytale dream come true
But I have to ask myself as I marvel at my surroundings
Is this just a dream?

Verse 1
Prince Charming gallops through the forest with me to the palace beyond
We come to a cobblestone moat crossing and knights in shining armor lined up
I stare, breathless and wonderstruck about what is going on
We travel swiftly, my hair flying into my face
You pull your horse into the front door of the palace
And take me down with your hand

Verse 2
Suddenly, I'm transported into a lushious bedroom in the palace
There are rich red silk drapes covering the cathedrial-like windows
And gold thick carpeting, my bare feet sinking into
And there's a Califorian king sized canopy bed decored lavishly to the kilt
Then my eyes land upon a pale pink ballroom dress laid out on my bed
I see a note and a white diamond tiara
I read it, it says "wear the dress, shoes, and tirara tonight" -love prince charming

Pre-Chorus
Down at the ballroom tonight, there are people dressed to the nines
I walk gracefully down the stairs, all eyes are on me
And there you are, dressed in a tux, handsome like never before
When I reach the bottom landing, everyone claps, and you walk over to me
Reach out with a hand, asking silently to ask this dance
And as the music begins to play, I say yes and suddenly our song is playing

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
The dance is over and before I have a chance to say anything
Prince Charming tells me, I must go
Go where
Go back home
There, the shining light comes back to me, but it's not the sunny sunshine it was
Instead it dark and black, like that of nighttime
Prince charming and I kissed each other goodbye
I ask if I will ever see him again
He answers with a knowing look like: you will, in reality though
And I begin to run, run, run, up the steps to exit, but the darkness is coming quickly
I lose a glass slipper and suddenly, I fall down on my bed

Repeat Chorus

Out-Tro
I awake to morning light and go inside my closet, there I open up and see
Hidden between two sweaters is my ballgown from my dream and tiara
A note is attached and reads: I'll be your prince charming, dear girl, you'll soon find me as a new
Student in your school
I gaze, dumbfounded at the note
I'm wondering if that dream was just a dream or a reality?
Was it all just a dream?
