Wake Up Sleeping Beauty

 

Wake up, my sleeping beauty

Not all dreams are crushed by the uncaring

Nor all hopes dashed

Forget him, your prince not charming

Not all dreams are denied a happy ending

Nor every wish unfulfilled

Did the glass slipper fit?

Did the soft kiss awaken?

Did the knight's armor shine?

Or did the coward sneak out the back door?

Did the glitter diminish?

Did the prince turn into a dragon?

Write again, my sweet lyricist

Not all music is inspired by unrequited love

Nor all words empty

Seek the truer heart

Dream the better dream

Write the sweeter song
