Fairy Tale Lyrics

I’ve forgotten how long it has been since the last time
忘了有多久 再没听到你
wàngle yǒu duōjiǔ zài méi tīng dào nǐ

You were telling me about your favorite story
对我说 你最爱的故事
duì wǒ shuō nǐ zuì ài de gùshì

I’ve wondered for a long time and I started to panic
我想了很久 我开始慌了
wǒ xiǎngle hěnjiǔ wǒ kāishǐ huāngle

Have I done something wrong again?
是不是我又做错了什么
shì bùshì wǒ yòu zuò cuòle shénme

 

You tremble with tears and told me that fairytales are all lies.
你哭着对我说 童话里都是骗人的
nǐ kūzhe duì wǒ shuō tónghuà li dōu shì piàn rén de

I can’t possibly be your prince
我不可能 是你的王子
wǒ bù kěnéng shì nǐ de wángzǐ

Maybe you’ll never understand, back when you told me you love me
也许你不会懂 从你说爱我以后
yěxǔ nǐ bù huì dǒng cóng nǐ shuō ài wǒ yǐhòu

The stars in my sky has lightened up
我的天空星星都亮了
wǒ de tiānkōng xīngxīng dōu liàngle
