lyrics

When you were young, you dreamt your life was a fantasy. You'd find yourself swept off your feet by some kind of royalty. You grew up thinking that true love comes unexpectedly, like in the movies when everything works out eventually. But as the lights come up after the show you look around and find you're sitting alone, so...
It's the next best thing til you find your one true love.
Years have come and gone and they brought you down to earth, but don't despair. You still may share in all that you are worth. A diamond ring and a limousine on your wedding day, with your prince at home to have and to hold just like the stories say. He'll give you love that's sincere, but right now it's just the two of us here, so...
I probably won't buy you flowers or recite you poetry. It's not the love of a lifetime, it's only temporary. Although I don't have a fortune, I'd do my best to try to make you feel like all of your needs have been satisfied. And when the money runs out, you won't have any reason to doubt you got me.
I'll make the loneliness not so terrible until you walk with him down the aisle. And he may put you upon a pedestal. I wanna get you off for a while.
