Its story is written in the textbooks of history
Love me or love me not? That is the question
This love that’s felt is a fairy tale of sorts
When a man meets a woman
Sweeping her off of her dainty feet
Making butterflies fly into the night
Igniting feelings of longing
All with a kiss goodnight
Prince charming comes to claim his bride
And lead her into happily ever after
Riding horseback through the haunting wood
To an enchanted land that glitters of gold
A white picket fence
Surrounding a beautiful home
Children running wild without a care in the world
This storybook love lives
As we breathe in fresh lilies in a never-ending field of green
Cuddled with the love of your life
As you watch the sun drift behind the crest of the earth
Planning a future of peace and harmony
Living happily ever after
