I Need Not Pretend Anymore
When I was just a young girl
I imagined I was her
I was the 'real' Cinderella
The one you read in fairy tales
My life was a walk through the ashes
Just wished I'd disappear
So I became Cinderella
No more fears
When I was a young lady
Being Cinderella
Made me feel elegant and important
Wondered if he'd show up
My Prince Charming
My life was a walk through the ashes
Just wished I'd disappear
Then I became Cinderella
No more fears
My life as Cinderella
Seemed not the easiest after all
Met men who might 'be the one'
Alas turned out to be toads
Where was my Prince
No longer did I walk the path of ashes
As I became a young woman
Refused to disappear now
No longer Cinderella
Fears subside
Now a grown woman
Cinderella lives in a fairy tale
I need not pretend to be
Anyone but myself
The man I found is not a Prince
But he's a King of a man to me
