Before you met me
I was a fairy princess
I caught frogs and
called them prince
And made myself a queen
Before you knew me I
traveled 'round the world
I slept in castles and fell
in love because I was
taught to dream
I found mayonnaise
bottles and poked
holes on top
To capture tinkerbell
And they were
just fireflies to the
untrained eye
But I could always tell
I believe in
fairytales
and dreamers dreams
like bed sheet sails
And I believe in Peter Pan
and miracles
And anything I can
to get by
And fireflies
Before I grew up I
saw you on a cloud
I could bless myself
in your name and
pat you on your wings
Before I grew up I
heard you whisper so loud
Life is hard and
so is love, child
believe in all these things
I found mayonnaise
bottles and poked
holes on top
To capture tinkerbell
And they were
just fireflies to the
untrained eye
But I could always tell
I believe in
fairytales
and dreamers dreams
like bed sheet sails
And I believe in Peter Pan
and miracles and
anything I can to get by
And fireflies
Fireflies
Before you met me
I was a fairy princess
I caught frogs and
called them prince
And made myself a queen
Before you knew me I
traveled 'round the world
And I slept in castles and
fell in love because I was
taught to dream
