lyrics
What about Cinderella and her glass shoe
She lived happily ever after
Yeah but none of it is true
What about king Midas
When everything turned gold
It's all right when we’re children but not when we are old
Sweet dreams [x3]
Fading before the dawn
Well take a look at the photo of a man and a woman in a perfect world
They got perfect teeth and a lovely tan
Such a beautiful boy and girl
But they don't know each other
They only met today
When the photographer took the picture
And said the check is on its way
Sweet dreams (Hold it, hold it, oh that's beautiful)
Sweet dreams (check is on the way)
Sweet dreams
Fading before the dawn
Somebody creates an image and waits for us to buy
They got our life planned out
From the day we get a person number 'til the day we die
Living in the fairy tale just doesn't make sense
Grass ain't never greener baby (yeah)
Down behind the fence
Sweet dreams [x3]
Fading before the dawn
Sweet dreams, yeah ooh ooh ooh
Sweet dreams, sweet dreams
Fading before the dawn
Uh
Uh-ha ha ha ha ha
She lived happily ever after
Yeah but none of it is true
What about king Midas
When everything turned gold
It's all right when we’re children but not when we are old
Sweet dreams [x3]
Fading before the dawn
Well take a look at the photo of a man and a woman in a perfect world
They got perfect teeth and a lovely tan
Such a beautiful boy and girl
But they don't know each other
They only met today
When the photographer took the picture
And said the check is on its way
Sweet dreams (Hold it, hold it, oh that's beautiful)
Sweet dreams (check is on the way)
Sweet dreams
Fading before the dawn
Somebody creates an image and waits for us to buy
They got our life planned out
From the day we get a person number 'til the day we die
Living in the fairy tale just doesn't make sense
Grass ain't never greener baby (yeah)
Down behind the fence
Sweet dreams [x3]
Fading before the dawn
Sweet dreams, yeah ooh ooh ooh
Sweet dreams, sweet dreams
Fading before the dawn
Uh
Uh-ha ha ha ha ha
