Storybook Love Lyrics

Come my love, I'll tell you a tale

of a boy and girl and their love story
and how he loved her oh, so much,

and all the charms she did possess.

Chorus:

My love is like a storybook story.

But it's as real as the feelings I feel.

My love is like a storybook story.

But it's as real as the feelings I feel;

it's as real as the feelings I feel.

Now this did happen once upon a time
When things were not so complex.

And how he worshipped the ground she walked on.

When he looked in her eyes, he became obsessed.

[Chorus]

This love was stronger than the powers so dark,

A prince could have within his keeping;

His spells to weave and steal a heart
Within her breast, but only sleeping.

[Chorus]

He said, 'Don't you know I love you oh, so much,

And lay my heart at the foot of your dress?'

She said, 'Don't you know that storybook loves

Always have a happy ending?'

Then he swooped her up, just like in the books,

And on his stallion they rode away.

[Chorus]
