I've told you almost every bedtime story |
|
And you've heard almost every nursery rhyme |
|
So tonight before you'll go to sleep |
|
And pray the |
|
Lord your soul to keep |
|
Here's Mommy's favorite story one more time |
|
Once upon a time there was a castle |
|
And in this castle lived a king and queen |
|
And it came to pass they both were blessed |
|
By one little blue eyed princess |
|
With the softest golden curls you've ever seen |
|
But then one day he met this pretty lady |
|
And she had lots of pretty words to say |
|
And this part makes your |
|
Mommy sad' |
|
Cause, oh, what big eyes she had |
|
And she took his hand and led him far away |
|
Still it's just another bedtime story |
|
But telling it brings teardrops to my eyes |
|
Just another pretty bedtime story |
|
So please forgive |
|
Mommy if she cries |
|
Then it came to pass the king grew lonely |
|
And the pretty lady wasn't all she seemed |
|
He realized that he was wrong |
|
And started his long journey home |
|
For he missed his little princess and his queen |
|
Then he was back and safe inside his castle |
|
And tears of joy came pouring down like rain |
|
Then the castle rang with laughter |
|
They lived happy ever after |
|
Knowing he would never leave again |
|
Still it's just another bedtime story |
|
But telling it brings teardrops to my eyes |
|
Just another pretty bedtime story |
|
So please forgive |
|
Mommy if she cries |
|
Won't you please forgive your |
|
Mommy if she cries |
