Cinderella
Unlocking Love's Mystery: A Cinderella Tale Unveiled
Lyrics
Cinderella you better thank your lucky stars
Cinderella, express gratitude for your good fortune
Spinning around that dance floor
Dancing on the floor with Prince Charming
In your Prince Charming's arms
Enjoying the embrace of Prince Charming
Here our princes swoon in dingy saloons
Princes showing affection in less glamorous places
After a glass of Jim Beam
After having a drink of Jim Beam
And hearing a couple tunes
Listening to a couple of songs
And they'll be gone before midnight
Princes leaving before midnight, mirroring Cinderella
Like you were too
Cinderella leaving early as well
But they'll leave us feeling lonely
Leaving others feeling lonely
Next time it's someone new
Anticipating a new romantic encounter
Oh Cinderella
Addressing Cinderella
Ticking down that clock does the worry ever stop
Reflecting on the ticking clock and constant worry
I've been searching for a love but I never come out on top
Expressing difficulty in finding successful love
Cindy give me tips on how to go from rags to rich
Asking Cinderella for advice on improving one's life
How does your prince never quit
Questioning Prince Charming's persistence in adversity
When life gets rough does he ditch
Wondering if Prince Charming abandons during tough times
Or does he treat your heart like glass
Comparing the fragility of the heart to glass shoes
Just like your shoes
Expecting Prince Charming to treat the heart delicately
Does he have a soul of gold
Asking if Prince Charming possesses a kind soul
And make your heart feel new
Prince Charming making the heart feel rejuvenated
Oh Cinderella
Addressing Cinderella again
Why would you run away
Questioning Cinderella's decision to leave
From a love you could save
Encouraging Cinderella to save her love
How could you go towards the pain
Asking why Cinderella moves towards pain
Instead of breaking off those chains
Suggesting breaking free from emotional chains
I know you had a happy ending
Acknowledging Cinderella's happy ending
I know we're only pretending
Recognizing the make-believe nature of the situation
But how did you find a love like this
Curious about how Cinderella found true love
Because I'm searching for a prince but I don't think he exists
Expressing doubt in finding a genuine prince
I wish I had a fairy godmother to put me in your shoes
Wishing for a fairy godmother's guidance
With just a sprinkle of dust she could wash away my blues
Desiring a magical solution to alleviate sadness
But I'll be here until midnight when he walks out that door
Waiting until midnight for an uncertain outcome
And I won't know what's coming next except the lonely in my core
Expecting loneliness without knowledge of the future
Why would you run away
Repeating the question of why Cinderella left
From a love you could save
Encouraging Cinderella to preserve her love
How could you go towards the pain
Questioning Cinderella's choice to approach pain
Instead of breaking off those chains
Suggesting breaking free from emotional chains again
I know you had a happy ending
Reiterating Cinderella's happy ending
I know we're only pretending
Acknowledging the fictional nature of the situation again
But how did you find a love like this
Expressing continued doubt in finding a genuine prince
Because I'm searching for a prince but I don't think he exists
Addressing Cinderella once more
Oh Cinderella
Asking Cinderella about her choices
Here our princes swoon in dingy saloons
Repeating the image of princes in less glamorous places
After a glass of Jim Beam
Reiterating the setting with Jim Beam and swift departures
But then they're gone too soon
Highlighting the brief presence of these princes
