kings love queens no matter how you twist the story

once upon a time
there was a serving maid
and she had a way
of falling in love with kings
the only problem was
she was just a serving maid
and kings
love queens

would you have loved her?

there once was a little girl
she had bleach blond hair
and clear blue eyes
blue like the sky

you should have heard her laugh
it was so beautiful
it was so innocent
it made butterflies sing
it made wind dance

you should have seen her smile
like she owned the world
it made the moon shine
it made the stars whisper

would you have crushed her then?
would you have been so eager?
if you had known the girl,
if you had watched her twirl.
if you had seen her dance to soundless music
if you had heard her crys of delight

would you have thought twice?
would you have looked again?
would you have changed you mind?
would you have tried to make her smile again?
if you had known the girl,
before the world crushed the blue out of her eyes.
