Píseň: Cinderella

Interpret:

Album:
Renaissance
As I was walking down a path in the woods one day
I came across a vision that caught my eye


There was a lady standing right there beside a well
And I heard her whisper
what you wish for you can have


Then the vision went away
I thought that I had lost her
The girl I had been waiting for
I can't believe I just saw her
She is the finest thing, I ever could imagine
Now I want her next to me, cause I want, cause I want more
Whoahhhh


Come to me my Cinderella
Straight to my wishing well and
You're the one I'll always cherish
I ya ya ya ya ya
Come to me my Cinderella
Straight to my wishing well and
You're the one I'll love forever
I ya ya ya ya ya


She is a gentle flower, she is the sun and rain and
She could be the reason for my joy and my pain
The first thing I see each morning, the last thing I see at night
You know if I could have all that
That's all I wish for in my life


Why did she have to go
What do I say to find her
This girl is the only one
I cannot deny her
She's making love to my mind
And I can't forget this feeling
It's her voice that's calling
It's her voice I need
Whoahhh


Come to me my Cinderella
Straight to my wishing well and
You're the one I'll always cherish
I ya ya ya ya ya
Come to my my Cinderella
Straight to my wishing well
You're the one I'll love forever
I ya ya ya ya ya


Ohhh Cinderella
Ohhh Cinderella
Ohhh Cinderella
You're all that I want
You're all that I need
Come back to me now
Cinderella


Come to me my Cinderella
Straight to my wishing well and
You're the one I'll always cherish
I ya ya ya ya ya
Come to me my Cinderella
Straight to my wishing well
You're the one I'll love forever
I ya ya ya ya ya
