Sleeping Beauty
Spinster I have and always will be
Pricked mine finger and now sleep for all eternity
Who will be that Prince Charming who can awaken me
With just one tiny kiss, can’t anyone see?
I’m trapped behind this thorny wall of
Endless slumber filled with nightmares
Is there not anyone who can set me free?
Please! I beg of thee, to chop down
These branches full of thorns and
Set my spirit soaring to the heavens above
Wake this Sleeping Beauty before
Time runs out …
Is there not one brave soul who can set me free?
