Long-Forgotten Fairytale

If someone told me you'd be here Whispering these familiar things Talking to my little pets Smoking the same old cigarettes I would have laughed I saw you last in summertime You said you hated long goodby-y-yes You said there's nothing to explain In every life a little rain Etcetera And a long-forgotten fairytale Is in your eyes again And I'm caught inside a dream world Where the colors are too intense And nothing is making sense There's a floating town of eiderdown In a mist of mystery There's an old enchanted castle And the princess there is me Decked out like a Christmas tree I guess you've had your little joke But I have lost my sense of humor My medication's wearing off Or it's just not strong enough To cover this And then you kiss me like before And I find myself wanting more And you tell that little lie That kept me hypnotized: Another kiss And a long-forgotten fairytale Is in your eyes again And I'm caught inside a dream world Where the colors are too intense And nothing is making sense There's a floating town of eiderdown In a mist of mystery There's an old enchanted castle And the princess there is me Decked out like a Christmas tree If someone told me I'd succumb If someone said I'd be so dumb After all the sleepless nights When I turned on all the lights I would have hit them But I have turned the other cheek My voice trembles, my knees are weak And you beat me once again And I know what happens then: You raise the ante And a long-forgotten fairytale Is in your eyes again And I'm caught inside a dream world Where the colors are too intense And nothing is making sense
