She forgot to breathe She forgot it was make-believe Can't avoid her eyes She never cared for long goodbyes
Thought I heard a whisper Something 'bout a masquerade Now she dances every day for me
She forgot to say Why she wrote the final scene that way And years leave only time On silver screens that play across my mind
It should have been easy It should have been everything she dreamed It should have been magic, yeah, but it's over Who knew what was on her mind It should have been magic, yeah, but it's over
Caught up in that world Where some stars shine and some just fade away Yet I remember smiles Forbidden dreams and places I might hide
Thought I heard a whisper Something 'bout the game she played Yeah, I know those whispers aren't for me
It should have been easy It should have been everything she dreamed It should have been magic, yeah, but it's over Who knew what was on her mind It should have been magic, yeah, but it's over
She forgot to breathe She forgot it was make-believe And I still see her eyes She never stayed for long goodbyes Hey, it's over Hey, it's over The dream is over The dream is over Yeah, it's over
Sinderella's got her life on trial Sleeping beauty with the icy smile Steamy hustler did it with those eyes X-rated surprise And oh Savannah, was it life you loved Endless parties Flights of ecstasy, the dream never dies In my eyes
