Under the faded yellow,
Of forgotten sunflowers,
A little girl cries alone,
With her hands raised to god,
And tears on her face,
She prays for a place to call home,
She is the little girl,
Who wanted to become a princess,
Who wanted to hide in her tower,
With her beautiful diamonds,
And her pretty dress,
The little girl who,
Believed against all odds,
Her prince would rescue her
From her curse,
But the dragon always found her,
And made her nightmare worse.
She is the little girl,
Who had a million dreams,
But none of them came true,
Who realised that beyond
The glitter and the smiles
Nothing is what it seems
So under the faded yellow
Of forgotten sunflowers
She sits in her shabby dress
But in her magical mirror,
And in her lovers eyes
She will always remain a princess.
