I used to be a child,
to see the world with open eyes,
to believe in fairy tales and love,
in happiness and god above.
I used to dream of angels,
to wish someone would come,
to take me out of this place
and to one that was more fun.
I used to be happy once,
and I know so do you,
but let's face the truth,
this world has no soul,
but swallows us whole..
We all used to be dreamers,
to believe in happy-ends,
in dreams that would come true,
but then we had to grow up,
me as well as you.
Then our hopes were fading,
we began to understand,
there we stopped being carefree,
and never again would we be.
I used to be happy once,
and I know so do you,
but let's face the truth,
this world has no soul
but swallows us whole..
Longs years have passed,
nothing ever changed,
Only we found out,
Prince Charming never came.
