Once upon a time

in a kingdom far far away

the king and queen were blessed

with a beautiful baby girl.

And throughout the land

everyone was happy

until the sun went down

and they saw that their daughter was

cursed with a frightful enchantment

that took hold each and every night.

Desperate they sought the help

of a fairy godmother

who had them lock the young princess

away in a tower

there to await the kiss

of the handsome prince charming.

It was he who would chance

the perilous journey

through blistering cold

and scorching desert

traveling for many days and nights

risking life and limb

to reach the dragon keep.

For he was the bravest

and most handsome

in all the land.

And it was destiny that his kiss

would break the dreaded curse.

He alone would climb to the highest room

of the tallest tower

to enter the princess chambers

cross the room to her sleeping silhouette

pull back the gossamer curtains

to find her.

What?

- Princess fiona?

- No!

Oh thank heavens.

Where is she?

- She is on her honeymoon.

- Honeymoon? With whom?

- She is on her honeymoon.

- Honeymoon? With whom?

So she said

what is the problem baby?

What is the problem?

Do not know

Well maybe am in love

Think about it

every time think bout it

Cannot stop thinking bout it

How much longer

will it take to cure this?

Just to cure it

cause cannot ignore it

If it is love love

Makes me wanna turn around

and face me

But do not know nothing

bout love

Oh come on come on

- Turn a little faster

Come on come on

The world will follow after

Come on come on

Everybody after love

So said

Am a snowball running

Running down into this spring

that is coming all this love

Melting under blue skies

belting out sunlight

Shimmering love

Well baby surrender

To the strawberry ice cream

Never ever end of all this love

Well did not mean to do it

But there is no escaping your love

These lines of lightning

mean we are never alone

Never alone no no

Come on come on

Jump a little higher

Come on come on

If you feel a little lighter

Come on come on

We were once upon a time in love

Hyah!
