STORYBOOK LOVE                                                      Back to Lyrics
(J. ERICKSON)
 

Verse 1

Girl:

You were the shining knight within my nursery rhyme

I your “Happily Ever After” once upon a time

So how our little bedtime story seemed to come and go

I don’t know

I don’t know

Boy:

You were the sweet Snow White who slept within my dream

But now your bed’s been taken by an evil queen

And even though you say the poison apple’s just for show

I don’t know

I don’t know

I don’t know

 

Chorus (Boy and Girl Together)

But I know you feel it when I’m walking by

Storybook Love

I know you feel it when I say goodbye

Storybook Love

 

Verse 2

Boy:

If I drove a magic truck that rolled around in time

I’d go back to yesterday and change my mind

Why I ever thought that I could stand to let you go

I don’t know

I don’t know

Girl:

I paid a witch doctor to cast an evil spell

And bring back our sweet love by using all the powers of hell

But why he took my money

And flew off to San Antonio

I don’t know

I don’t know

I don’t know

 

Chorus

 

Intro Riff

 

Verse 3

Boy and Girl Together:

If we could but walk again on shores of distant sea

And if there still could be a tale called “You and Me”

We’d read it to the people in the places that I’d go

If they don’t know

If they don’t know

If they don’t know

 

Chorus
