Firefall - Cinderella lyrics

Cinderella

Firefall

Last December I met a girl

She took a likin' to me

Said she loved me

But she didn't know the meaning of the word

She imagined love to be grand

Me holdin' her hand and

Whisperin' sweet things and

Cooin' softly like a song bird

Then one mornin' she came to me

With a tear in her eye and a

Sigh on her breath Lord she said

"Hon I'm heavy with child"

I said "god damn girl can't you see

That I'm breakin'my back

Just tryin' to keep my head above water

And it's turnin' me wild"

Cinderella can't you see

Don't want your company

You better leave this mornin' leave today

Take your love and your child away

Rockin' chair on the front porch

I'm thinkin' about all the things that I did

As a young man

Now that I'm old

I remember her and the boy

Did he have all the toys and the joys

That a young man should have

Before he gets too old

Cinderella couldn't you see

Didn't want your company

Shoulda left that mornin' left that day

Took your love and your child away
