You stood there in the doorway bathed in golden candlelight While helpless hearts were melted by your style So many gazing faces swaying softly in the night Whose thoughts were making love to your sweet smile Your sweet smile Like Cinderella, you were the queen of the ball Yeah you were the fairest of all but why did I let you fall I tried to keep your love above me girl when you reached out and touched me But the music played for hours when the party was all over
I tried to treat you like a lady when I heard about the baby Oohh...oohh...oohh...oohh...oohh...oohh Now you lie there in your silence bathed in golden candlelight While the man is speaking softly your last rites And so many gazing faces crying softly in the night While helpless hearts all knelt there by your side By your side Like Cinderella, you were the queen of the ball Yeah you were the fairest of all but why did I let you fall
