Lyrics
Everything youve ever thought,
every love youve ever dreamed,
every fairytale they told you,
they aint quite what they seem
Wish yourself a white knight
in an ivory limousine,
but love can break your heart.
Theres a hard world waiting
somewhere down the line.
Theres a hard world waiting
in the shadows close behind.
Love can be so beautiful,
so perfect sometimes,
and then you wake to find
a hard world waiting.
Castles floating on the clouds
dont always stand so long;
just takes a reckless word
to sunder each and every stone.
Love can be the mortar
that can keep it standing strong
but love can break your heart.
Hush, youll know loves ecstasy;
but dont rush into it carelessly.
Just let it be what it will be when it will be,
or watch it turn to dust
(and break your pretty heart).
Love is an essential thing:
the air we need to breathe,
the life force in our very veins,
but sometimes it can bleed.
Trust that love can save you,
but be wary way down deep
cause love can break your heart.
And theres a hard world waiting
somewhere down the line.
Theres a hard world waiting
in the shadows close behind.
Love can be so beautiful,
so perfect sometimes,
and I pray you never find
a hard world waiting.
