Princess

I should have seen this coming; I don't know what to say.
Tell me, sweet Princess, do you need a rescue today?
Be good until I come, and everything will be fine.
In a crown and glass slippers you'd look simply divine.

Come down from your tower to my white horse below.
Hold on tight now, and I won't let you go.
You're my fragile darling and you shine like gold.
Your hands are like ice and they should be mine to hold.

I missed my shot, love; I'm sorry to say.
But just know you can be mine on any fine day.
I can't stay up waiting for you to be free.
But I'll dream all night of you next to me.

The saddest thing here is that you know how I feel.
I really blew my chance and I don't know how to deal.
Make me a promise at this time tonight.
That no matter the distance, you will be alright.
