i said i wanted prince charming
but instead i got you
i said i wanted a boy who loved the same books as me
but instead i got the boy who who lent me new ones
i said i wanted a boy who would drink tea with me
but instead i got the boy who made me a cup of coffee
i said i wanted a boy who would agree with me
but instead i got the boy who made me think
i said i wanted a boy who would stand up for me
but instead i got the boy who taught me to stand up for myself
i said i wanted a boy who saw the world as i did
but instead i got the boy who showed me a different perspective
i said i wanted a boy who would always tell me he loved me
but instead i got the boy who made me love myself
i said i wanted a fairytale
but instead i got reality
i said wanted prince charming
but instead i got something better
