美國節奏藍調天后〔安妮塔貝克〕──靈魂抒情佳作──融入爵士風情的〔Fairy Tales／童話故事〕

I can remember stories, those things my mother said
She told me fairy tales, before I went to bed
She spoke of happy endings, then tucked me in real tight
She turned my night light on, and kissed my face good night
My mind would fill with visions, of perfect paradise
She told me everything, she said hed be so nice
Hed ride up on his horse and, take me away one night
Id be so happy with him, wed ride clean out of sight
She never said that we would, curse, cry and scream and lie
She never said that maybe, someday hed say goodbye

The story ends, as stories do
Reality steps into view
No longer living life in paradise - of fairy tales - uh
No, uh - huh - mmm - mmm

She spoke about happy endings, of stories not like this
She said hed slay all dragons, defeat the evil prince
She said hed come to save me, swim through the stormy seas
Id understand the story, it would be good for me
You never came to save me, you let me stand alone
Out in the wilderness, alone in the cold

My story end, as stories do
Reality steps into view
No longer living life in paradise - no fairy tales - yes

I dont look for pie up in the sky, baby
Need reality, now, said I
Dont feel the need to be pacified, dont cha try
Honey, I know you lied

You never came to save me, you let me stand alone
Out in the wilderness, alone in the cold
I found no magic postion, no horse with wings to fly
I found the poison apple, my destiny to die
No royal kiss could save me, no magic spell to spin
My fantasy is over, my life must now begin

My story end, as stories do
Reality steps into view
No longer living life in paradise - no fairy tales - eh,
Hey, hey - eee - mmm, mmm
