Willy DeVille - Storybook Love lyrics

Come, my love, I'll tell you a tale Of a boy and girl and their love story And how he loved her oh so much And all the charms she did possess. Now this did happen once upon the time When things were not so complex And how he worshipped the board she walked And when he looked in her eyes he become obsessed. My love is like a storybook story But it's as real as the feelings I feel My love is like a storybook story But it's as real as the feelings I feel It's as real as the feelings I feel. This love was stronger than the powers so dark A prince could have within his keeping His spells to weave and steal a heart Within her breast but only sleeping. My love is like a storybook story But it's as real as the feelings I feel My love is like a storybook story But it's as real as the feelings I feel It's as real as the feelings I feel. He said: 'Don't you know I love you oh so much?' 'And lay my heart at the foot of your dress?' She said: 'Don't you know that storybook loves' 'Always have the happy ending?' Then he swooped her up just like in the books And on his stallion they rode away. My love is like a storybook story But it's as real as the feelings I feel My love is like a storybook story But it's as real as the feelings I feel It's as real as the feelings I feel.
