lyrics

does it all come to this?
where's the fairy tale she missed
with the prince and the seven dwarves
gathered all around her

in spite of all she planned
compromise was always out there
in the distance
throwing water on the flames of desire

she started off so strong - out the blocks
pursuing everything she'd heard
but the dream
was always just beyond her

but then the mark began to fall
til she thought,
"well maybe someone could just be there"
and she stared singing,

"la la la la, la la la la
la la la la, maybe this will be the one"

she brushes back a lock of hair
and she laughs and says,
"to think of me with him ten years ago;
you would be crazy

"but he's nice, and he's good
and he treats me like i need to be treated
and loved, and loved...

"la la la la, la la la la
la la la la, maybe this will be the one"

don't we all have faded dreams
don't you find that when you reach
for the stars all you get
are dreams and thieves, dreams and thieves

"la la la la, la la la la
la la la la, maybe this will be the one"

does it all come to this?
where's the fairy tale she missed
with the prince and the seven dwarves
gathered all around her
