Fairy Tale Books

Our head is full of dreams
And lots of funny things you can only imagine
But the things you imagine ain’t always gonna be

Our face is full of lines
From all the other times you had hoped they were worth it
But pretending he’s perfect doesn’t mean it’s gonna be

Remember that summer night
Your eyes so bright
Staring back at mine
Hands intertwined
We laughed at friends
We played pretend
Back when you were mine

I don’t wanna be the one that you forget about
‘Cause I wasn’t all that you read about
In your fairy tale book
No, I don’t wanna be the one that you forget about
‘Cause I wasn’t all that you read about
In your fairy tale book

When you’ve had enough of that wicked stuff
To leave it all behind
Or maybe you won’t

A habit that we chose
Never was supposed to but nothing’s forever
And we swore we’d be clever enough to let it go

The tingle in your heart
Before we broke apart, you said: Thank you for seeing me
Told me that I could be anything I want

Remember december, well
Things gone to hell
I took the blame
Head hung in shame
You’ll never get enough
Of that wicked stuff
To leave it all behind

So I guess I’m just the one that you forget about
I wasn’t all that you read about
In your fairy tale book
But I don’t wanna be the one that you forget about
‘Cause I wasn’t all that you read about
In your fairy tale book
